  • FHA 203k
  • Limited FHA 203k

  • Maximum loan is $453,100

FHA 203k

An FHA 203k loan is designed for you to borrow money, using only one loan for both home improvement and a home purchase. FHA Loan limits vary by market. In the Chicago area it is currently $365,700 for a single family property and up to $703,000 for a four unit property.

  • Loan amount based on the home value, including renovations
  • Only one loan needed to both purchase and improve
  • Refinance and rehab your own home
  • Can be used to buy property otherwise not eligible for financing

Fix & Flip

Fix & flip loans help short term real estate investors finance the purchase and renovation of a property before flipping it for a profit.

Program Features:

  • As little as 10% down and 100% of the construction costs for experienced “flippers”
  • With little to no experience, you’d need 20% down but 100% of the construction cost would be financed.
