The Rahabilitation Fha 203k Loan.
The FHA 203k loan allows the home buyer to repair or modernize the dwelling with the same permanent loan that he bought the house with. This saves the home buyer on high interest rates from the other fixer upper loans that he would have gotten. In order for the lender to be protected in giving the FHA loan, the FHA 203k loan is endorsed by HUD as soon as the mortgage proceeds are given and HUD creates a rehabilitation escrow account for the homeowner to use on the rehabilitation of the dwelling. This then gives the homeowner a permanent fully insured FHA 203k loan.
