Understanding the benefits and process of a Residential Renovation 

Loan for Realtors

Renovation financing allows a borrower to Purchase or Refinance a home in less than ideal condition and make the improvements immediately after closing.

A Sale may close with some or NONE of the Utilities/Systems on prior to closing !!

The cost of the renovation is rolled typically into a 30 year mortgage making it very affordable.

Homebuyers: Can purchase homes in less 

than ideal condition (as‐is) and address the problems immediately after closing.

Homeowners:  May upgrade/modernize or 

expand to increase value ( to stay in or list for resale)‐ Love it or List it ! . Equity loans are very hard to get and credit cards are too expensive.

Real Estate agents:  Sell dated and properties needing repairs by helping potential buyers envisioning remodeling possibilities. ……….

Sell a Vision‐ what it could be, not what it is. Let the buyer create their Dream Home now.

Negative Listing notes:   REO’s, Short Sales, HUD properties, “as‐is”, cash only, CO responsibility of buyer.

All can be financed with a Renovation loan easily

.                   

Second Home owners and buyers:    Can take advantage of the program.

Investors can purchase homes in need of 

repairs, not limiting them to pay cash (this makes it possible for you to sell more units to an Investor freeing up capital to make multiple sales). They can also upgrade a property they own for increased rent rolls or to list for resale.

When Selling or Listing a property 

where the need for repairs is 

obvious…… 

When you have an Appraisal with 

repair conditions subject to final 

inspection, prior to closing.  

When you want to sell Vision !

When a homebuyer wants to purchase a 

house in need of repair or 

modernization, the homebuyer usually 

has to obtain financing first to purchase 

the dwelling; additional financing to do 

the rehabilitation construction; and a 

permanent mortgage when the work is 

completed to pay off the interim loans 

with a permanent mortgage. 

Often the interim financing (the 

acquisition and construction loans) 

involves relatively high interest rates and 

relatively short amortization periods. 

The Section 203(k) program was 

designed to address this situation.

The borrower can get just one mortgage 

loan, at a long‐term fixed (or adjustable) 

rate, to finance both the acquisition and 

the rehabilitation of the property. To 

provide funds for the rehabilitation, the 

mortgage amount is based on the 

projected value of the property with the 

work completed, taking into account the 

cost of the work. 

ELIGIBLE PROPERTY.  

To be eligible, the property must be a 

one‐ to four‐family dwelling that has 

been completed for at least one year. 

The number of units on the site must be 

acceptable according to the provisions of

local zoning requirements. 

Homes that have never been completed 

cannot be accepted into the 203(k) 

program; construction of the property 

must have been completed for at least 

one year. Evidence of completion would 

be a Certificate of Occupancy or other 

similar documentation from the local 

jurisdiction.

Homes that have been demolished, or 

will be razed as part of the rehabilitation 

work, are eligible provided the existing 

foundation system is not affected and 

will still be used. Part of the foundation 

system must remain in place.  

A report from a licensed structural 

engineer is required stating that the 

existing foundation is structurally sound 

and capable of supporting the proposed 

construction of the dwelling.  It may be 

modified 

In addition to typical home rehabilitation 

projects, this program can be used to 

convert a one family dwelling to a two, 

three, or four‐family dwelling. An 

existing multi‐unit dwelling could be 

decreased to a one‐ to four‐family unit

An existing house on another site can be 

moved onto the mortgaged property; 

however, release of loan proceeds for 

the existing structure on the non‐

mortgaged property is not allowed until 

the new foundation has been properly 

inspected and the dwelling has been 

properly placed and secured to the new 

foundation. 

HOW THE PROGRAM CAN BE USED.  

This program can be used to accomplish 

rehabilitation and/or improvement of an 

existing one‐to‐four unit dwelling in one 

of three ways: 

A. To purchase a dwelling and the 

land on which the dwelling is 

located and rehabilitate it. 

B. To purchase a dwelling on another 

site, move it onto a new 

foundation on the mortgaged 

property and rehabilitate it. 

C. To refinance existing indebtedness 

and rehabilitate such a dwelling.

The Consultant’s first task during the loanprocess is to perform an initial propertyinspection.  

If the homeowner is unfamiliar with repairsrequired by FHA guidelines, they should involvethe Consultant as soon as possible (MPR items) If the borrower has a good grasp of what isneeded, the Consultant can be brought in after thecontractor has submitted bid(s).

The Consultant’s role is to review and verify the accuracy of the contractor’s estimates and ensure that all required repairs are completed.

The Consultant is also responsible for overseeing the draw process

The Final Release Notice can be issued, 

authorizing the final payment, which may 

include the interest earned on the escrow 

account and the total of all holdbacks.  This 

Notice also directs the prepayment of the 

mortgage by the amount remaining in the 

contingency reserve and any unused 

inspection fees or mortgage payments, 

when applicable. 

All inspections are performed by HUD‐

approved fee Inspector/HUD Consultant or 

Appraiser assigned by the Lender. The 

inspector is to use the architectural exhibits 

in order to make a determination of 

compliance or non‐compliance.  

The HUD accepted Plan Reviewer (if used) 

can be allowed to do the fee inspections on 

the property, because he/she is already 

familiar with the proposed improvements 

and can inspect the rehabilitation knowing 

what was accepted in the work write‐up.

When the inspection is scheduled due to a 

request for payment, the inspector is to 

indicate on the Compliance Inspection 

Report whether or not the work has been 

completed. Also, the inspector must use the 

Draw Request form.  

The first draw must not be scheduled until 

the lender has determined that the 

applicable building permits have been 

issued. 

The inspection fees are paid by the 

mortgagor, but, the lender is responsible to 

ensure that payment is made to the 

inspector. If the inspection fee is part of the 

escrow, then it can be released along with 

the release of the escrow funds as a result 

of an acceptable Draw Request.

A ten (10) percent holdback is required on 

each release from the Rehabilitation Escrow 

Account. The total of all holdbacks may be 

released only after a final inspection of the 

rehabilitation and issuance of the Final 

Release Notice.  

At the discretion of the Lender, the cost 

estimate may include a contingency 

reserve if the existing construction is 

less than 30 years old or the nature of 

the work is complex or extensive. A 

contingency reserve is required when 

there is evidence of termite damage or 

previous termite infestation. 

For properties older than 30 years the cost 

estimate must include a contingency 

reserve of a minimum of ten (10) percent of 

the cost of rehabilitation; however, the 

contingency reserve may not exceed twenty 

(20) percent where major remodeling is 

contemplated. If the utilities were not 

turned on for inspection, a minimum fifteen 

(15) percent is required.

The reserve cannot be used to make 

additional improvements to the dwelling 

that are considered luxury items; however, 

it may be used to pay for added 

construction costs caused by deficiencies 

(health, safety and necessity) discovered 

during rehabilitation. 

Any unused portion of the Contingency 

Reserve Fund remaining at the time of 

issuance of the Final Release Notice must 

be applied to reduce the mortgage balance. 

Work items cannot be deleted from the 

rehabilitation if it will decrease the value of 

the home, since the loan has already closed.

If the Borrower feels that the contingency 

reserve will not be used and they wish to 

avoid having the reserve applied to reduce 

the mortgage balance after issuance of the 

Final Release Notice, the borrower (or any 

other person, organization or agency on the 

borrower's behalf) may place their own 

funds into the contingency reserve account.

23

In this case, if monies are remaining in the 

account after the Final Release Notice is 

issued, the monies may be released back to 

the borrower (or other person, organization 

or agency who placed the money in the 

contingency reserve). 

If the mortgage is at the maximum 

mortgage limit for the area or for the 

particular type of transaction, but a 

contingency reserve is required, the 

contingency reserve must be placed into an 

escrow account from other funds of the 

borrower at closing. 

Under these circumstances, if the 

contingency reserve is not used, the 

remaining funds in the escrow account will 

be released to the borrower after the Final 

Release Notice has been issued.

Funds not to exceed the amount of six (6) 

mortgage payments (including PITI and the 

mortgage insurance premium) can be 

included in the cost of rehabilitation and 

deposited in the rehabilitation escrow 

account to assist a mortgagor when the 

property is not occupied during 

rehabilitation. 

The number of mortgage payments cannot 

exceed the completion time frame required 

in the Rehabilitation Loan Agreement. The 

lender must make the monthly mortgage 

payments directly from the interest bearing 

reserve account.  

Monies remaining in the reserve account 

after the Final Release Notice is issued, or 

occupancy of the property, must be used to 

reduce the mortgage principal.

Expenses eligible to be included in the cost 

of rehabilitation are materials, labor, 

contingency reserve, overhead and 

construction profit (put in each work item), 

up to six (6) months of mortgage payments,

the Supplemental Origination Fee which the 

mortgagor is permitted to pay when the 

mortgage involves insurance of advances, 

and the discounts which the mortgagor will 

pay on that portion of the mortgage

Overview

Style Renovation mortgage enables a borrower to obtain a purchase transaction

mortgage or a limited cash‐out refinance mortgage and receive funds to cover the costs of

repairs, remodeling, renovations, or energy improvements to the property. The mortgage may

be delivered to Fannie Mae prior to completion of the renovation, subject to limited recourse as

described below.

Overview The HomeStyle Renovation mortgage enables a borrower to obtain a purchase transaction mortgage or a limited cash-out refinance mortgage and receive funds to cover the costs of repairs, remodeling, renovations, or energy improvements to the property 

There are no required improvements or restrictions on the types of repairs allowed or a minimum dollar amount for the repairs, however, must be permanently affixed to the real property and add value to the property. 

Renovation-related costs that may be considered as part of the total renovation costs include: property inspection fees; costs and fees for the title update; architectural and engineering fees; independent consultant fees; costs for required permits; and other documented charges, such as fees for energy reports, appraisals, review of renovation plans, and fees charged for processing renovation draws.

A HomeStyle Renovation Mortgage may be either a fixed-rate mortgage or an ARM loan. The original principal amount of the mortgage may not exceed Fannie Mae’s maximum allowable mortgage amount for a conventional first mortgage. Fannie Mae provides HomeStyle Renovation Maximum Mortgage Worksheet, to assist lenders in calculating the maximum loan amount. The cost of renovations is limited to 50% of the “as completed” appraised value of the property.

• The loan amount is based on LTV derivedfrom lesser of:

• TOTAL acquisition cost including allconstruction related expense

• Or from the “as completed” value of the home

Fannie Mae limits the number of residential properties the borrower may currently be financing to four properties, including his or her principal residence. This limitation is based on the total number of properties financed, not just the number of mortgages sold to Fannie Mae or the number of HomeStyle mortgages sold.

Joint ownership in residential real estate is considered the same as total ownership of an individual property. The four-property limit applies to any combination of ownership in one- to four-unit properties, whether or not the financing involves a HomeStyle product.  

For example, a borrower may own four single-family properties; two two-family properties and two single-family properties; one co-borrower may own one single-family property and the other co-borrower may own three two-family properties; a borrower may own four four-family properties; etc.

The appraisal report for a HomeStyle Renovation Mortgage must provide an “as completed” appraised value that estimates the value of the property after completion of the renovation work.

All renovation work must be performed by a 

licensed contractor.  A borrower must choose 

his/her own Contractor to perform the needed 

Renovations, subject to the lender’s determination 

that the contractor is qualified and experience.  The 

contractor must have all appropriate Licenses and 

Insurance as required by the State and or 

municipality they are in. 

The plans and specifications must be prepared by a registered, licensed, or certified general contractor, renovation consultant, or architect. The plans and specifications should fully describe all of the work to be done and provide an indication of when various jobs or stages of completion will be scheduled (including both the start and completion dates).

The lender must use the plans and specifications to document and evaluate the quantity, quality, and cost of the renovation work that is to be done and to determine the amount of financing that will be available. These plans and specifications also must be used by the appraiser in the development of his or her opinion of the “as completed” value of the property.

The costs of the renovations will be based on the plans and specifications for the work and on the contractor’s bids for all of the work requested by the borrower. The renovation costs may include a contingency reserve, renovation-related costs, and an escrow for mortgage payments that come due during the renovation period, if the borrower is unable to occupy the property during the renovation.

The construction contract must: itemize the specific work that the contractor agrees to perform for the borrower, state the agreed-upon cost of the renovation, identify all subcontractors and suppliers, include an itemized description that establishes the schedule for completing each stage of the work and the corresponding payments to be made to the contractor.

This contract, which must be executed by both the contractor and the borrower, should also require the contractor to: be duly licensed (if required by applicable law); obtain all required insurance coverages (such as all-risk, public liability, workmen’s compensation, and automobile liability); complete the work in compliance with the contract and all applicable government regulations (such as building codes and zoning restrictions);
