A Homestyle renovation loan is a conventional Fannie Mae loan that allows you to purchase and renovate a home or refinance and renovate your existing home. They will allow you to borrow up to 95% of the purchase plus renovations on purchases and 95% of the homes future/post renovation value on refinances. All appraisals on renovation loans are done “subject to repair” meaning the appraised value is determined as if the repairs/remodel have already been completed!

The benefit ….remodeling a home before you move in or renovating your current home borrowing against the homes future value. Even if you recently purchased your home and don’t have a lot of equity, a homestyle loan is likely a perfect fit! This is all done with everything financed in to ONE loan!

Rates? Depending on your credit and the final loan to value, you can expect to get a rate that is only a tick higher than regular conventional financing!
