FHA 203k Program
HUD’s Section 203(k) loan is one of many FHA programs that make mortgage credit available to borrowers when buying or refinancing a house that is need of repair or modernization. Unlike conventional rehab programs, the 203k has the same relaxed credit and income qualifying and low down payment guidelines as other FHA loan programs. This program works great for those who may not otherwise qualify for conventional loans due to income, credit and/or down payment limitations.
Similar to conventional renovation loans, the 203k offers a solution that helps borrowers by providing a single, long - term, fixed - or adjustable - rate loan that can cover both the acquisition and rehabilitation of a property. 203k loans save borrowers time and money.
