203K Consultant

Often, we let a house go as it needs some cosmetic repairs. Today, getting a house repair loan has become quite easy. All a person needs to do is hire a 203K consultant, so that a report can be made for the lender, in order to start the loan process.

A 203K streamline is known as a ‘cosmetic repair’ loan, which is used to do small house repairs that do not involve changing the home’s construction. The loan is given on the basis that the repairs do not need any construction workers or engineers.

The Benefit of 203K Streamline Loan

The plus point of a 203K streamline loan is that the amount of money given for the home repairs is included in the home’s mortgage. The maximum amount of money given in this loan is $35,000. The loan taken out for buying the house is increased with the addition of this amount. This results in only one loan and one interest rate.

Repairs That Can Be Done on A 203K Streamline Loan

  • Replacement of gutters
  • Repairs to porches, patios and decks
  • Repairing roof patches
  • Septic system repair
  • Plumbing fixtures
  • Minor electrical appliances
