Home Remodeling LoanHome remodeling loans are my specialty. Homeowners and buyers need an easier way to finance remodeling of their existing home or the home they are purchasing. In the past, homeowners or purchasers wishing to finance remodeling projects had few choices. These were 1) Pay for the home remodeling in cash. 2) A cash-out refinance based on the current value of the home. 3) Get a home equity line. This places the burden of funding the remodeling project on the homeowner who will not be reimbursed until after the loan closes.

lenders offer two types of product characterized by how they base
interest rates during the remodeling phase. I refer to these approaches
as “One Step” and “Two Step” Remodeling loan products are a variation of the "One Time Close" construction/perm home remodeling loan. The major advantage of a remodeling loan is that we lend against the finished or "as completed" value of the property rather than the current value of your home. There are several home loans designed for remodeling:
Under the above programs, you may act as your own General Contractor if the home remodeling costs are less than $50,000 and the "footprint" of the home is not changed.
