This one took some work — and that’s exactly why I’m excited about it.
My buyer purchased this home using an FHA 203(k) renovation loan, which allowed him to finance the purchase and the needed improvements as part of the same transaction.
203(k) loans aren’t always easy. There are more moving parts, more people involved, more paperwork, and sometimes a few problems to work through along the way. Because of that, not every agent or lender wants to take them on.
But sometimes the difficult deal is the one worth doing.
A huge thank you to Erin Hooper for all of her work on the lending side. Erin and I have something in common - neither of us is afraid to dig in, work through the issues, and figure out how to get something done when the easy answer would be to walk away.
And here's the best part: after the planned renovations, my buyer is projected to have $30,000+ in equity in the home. That's a pretty good way to start homeownership.
If you’ve passed over homes because they needed too much work - or you’ve never heard of an FHA 203(k) renovation loan — let’s talk. A property that doesn't look like the right house today may have more potential than you think.
