Cambria Mortgage offers both full and streamline FHA 203K
loans to make the process of buying a home that
needs a little TLC (or quite a bit in some cases!) easier,
more affordable, and quicker. Many of us have seen
firsthand, or have heard stories about foreclosed home that
have been torn up, stripped, vandalized, etc. With
conventional financing, these homes are very difficult to
sell or buy, as they are not in move in condition, and most
lenders will not lend on a damaged home. The Streamline program should not be confused with the more complicated FHA 203K rehab loan, which can accommodate major remodels, major damage repair, storm damage, etc. The FHA 203K Streamline rehab loan is just that - Streamlined, and should work for most people on most homes. This loan can help with new paint (in/out), new siding, new
roof, new flooring, new appliances, HVAC repair/replacement,
electrical & plumbing repair & upgrades, new windows, decks,
porches, patios, minor kitchen remodels, & more.
