Federal Housing Administration and HUD Office of Housing’s Post

Today we’re announcing a newly updated set of policies for the FHA 203(k) Rehabilitation Mortgage Insurance Program. The program allows borrowers to use FHA-insured financing to include the cost of rehabilitation or repair in a single mortgage used to purchase or refinance a home: https://lnkd.in/eCPv_jPU

The FHA 203(k) loan program has long been one of the best counter cyclical loan programs in the mortgage banking industry when the country and homeowners have needed it to access affordable housing. The changes announced today by HUD were much needed and are much appreciated by the mortgage banking industry. Of all of the changes made I think the biggest one is that lenders will be able to provide more home improvements to homes in rural areas and where there are not a lot of FHA 203(k) Consultants to facilitate Standard 203(k) loans. Great progress for all.
