Program Description
The Federal Housing Administration's (FHA's) Streamlined 203(K) program helps homeowners finance up to an additional $35,000 to repair, improve or upgrade their home as part of an FHA-insured home purchase or refinance mortgage. Upgrades can include energy upgrades and renovations that do not require structural engineering. The actual mortgage loan is provided through an FHA-approved lender, such as Contempo Lending, and the FHA provides mortgage insurance to reduce the risk of the additional project cost to the lender. A Streamlined K may be paired with an Energy Efficient Mortgage in some cases in order to get additional funding for improvements. As with any typical mortgage, the Streamlined K can be structured in many different ways that may include closing costs, fees or points. Additionally, it includes a 1.75% mortgage insurance fee at close and an additional monthly .85% mortgage insurance fee.
