TYPESof 203KLOANS

There are two differenttypes of FHA 203K loansavailable to homebuyersand homeowners.

Choosing the type which suits you best willdepend on the amountof improvements yourproperty needs.

FHA 203K StreamlineThe 203K Streamline loan is used for homes that need minor repairs, remodelingor upgrades and has a cap of $35,000.

FHA 203K Standard The 203K Standard loan is for homes that need major rehabilitation or repair.There must be at least $5000 worth of repairs and the loan limits are based on the property type and location.

For FHA 203K Lending Limits in your area visit:https://entp.hud.gov/idapp/html/hicostlook.cfm.

Because of the size and complexity of the FHA 203K Standard loan, FHA requiresa FHA 203K Consultant be involved in your project. You will find the FHA 203KConsultant very helpful, as they will assist you in determining the scope of repairs,the budget for the work to be done, and verify all work is completed satisfactorilyand as stated by the contractor.

THE FHA203KLOAN

PROCESSBefore we get into thedetails of each type ofFHA 203K loan, let’s gothrough the loan processstep by step to give youa better understanding &what to expect whenobtaining your loan.

Get Pre-approved with a Qualified, Experienced FHA 203K Lender Having a pre-approved loan will:

• Ensure you know the price range of homes to be shopping and are comfortablewith the total monthly payment, down payment and costs to close.

• Help you understand the process and requirements of the FHA 203K loan.

• Put you at the top of the list when presenting your offer.

• Expedite your closing process.

REMEMBER! 95% of mortgage lenders are unable to lend on FHA 203K loansand it is crucial to find a lender who can offer this program, but is also a specialist.This is an extremely important fact to understand. There are plenty of lenders whocan offer the FHA 203K mortgage but not many are specialists - having a specialistlike myself will ensure your loan closes in a timely fashion.

To get pre-approved with an FHA 203K lender, go to:www.anniemac203Klending.com and click “Confidential Quick Quote Form”.

(Homebuyer)

A great way to expedite the closing process is to interview contractors whileyou’re searching for a property. Depending on your area, AnnieMac RenovationLending works with experienced 203K contractors and we would be happy torecommend one out. If you already have a contractor you would like to use, thismanual will provide the eligibility requirements for contractors. Many clients havealso found it beneficial to spend time at local hardware stores (i.e. Home Depot,Lowes, etc.) researching possibilities and prices.

When searching for a property, the property can be a single family residence, 2to 4 units (e.g. duplex, triplex or fourplex), condo, or PUD. There are differentmaximum loan limits that apply and will vary depending on the county in whichthe property is located and whether the property is 1 to 4 units.

For a table of the maximum loan limits in your area visithttps://entp.hud.gov/idapp/html/hicostlook.cfm.2)Searching for

a Property

(Homebuyer & Real Estate Agent)

You’ve found a house!! Before meeting with your agent to make the offer, develop alist of possible renovation options. I would suggest you develop the following lists:

MUST DO LIST (addresses health & safety)

• Appraiser may add to this after viewing property.

• Meet with a FHA 203K Consultant that can do a feasibility analysis for you. This analysis will show you what is necessary to get your home into shape so that it meets FHA minimum property standards. The consultant report takes what has to be done and then allows for your “Wish List” to be added.

• Wish List

To review a list of eligible improvements for the 203K Streamline loan see page10 of this manual. For 203K Standard eligible improvements please see pages13 & 14 of this manual.

This is the time for you and your real estate agent to sit down and determine anappropriate purchase price, while taking into consideration a very rough esti-mate of additional money needed for work to be done. When making the offerto the seller, the offer you make is for the purchase price only and will notinclude the money needed for repairs/remodel.

For example: You want to pay $100,000 for a house and plan to roll $20,000-$30,000 into the FHA 203K loan for repairs/remodel. The offer to the seller willbe for $100,000 (the “as is” price); the additional money for repairs/remodel willcome from the lender and should not be included in the offer to the seller.

Meeting with your contractor before submitting an offer can be very helpful;however, in a competitive market you risk losing the house while getting yourducks in a row. Not to worry, there is a way around this dilemma. In your con-tract you can specify the necessary dates and deadlines, allowing you the timerequired for completing all inspections and gathering all estimates.

3)Making the Offer

Page 5: Renovation Lending Division EVERYTHING6qube.com/hubs/themes/anniemac/pdfs/manual.pdf · FHA 203K Streamline The 203K Streamline loan is used for homes that need minor repairs, remodeling

4

(Real Estate Agent)

This step is your real estate agent’s responsibility; however, it’s beneficial for youto understand the requirements, so you can review your offer prior to your agentsubmitting it to the seller.

When writing the contract, many real estate agents specify (under additionalprovisions) that the buyer will be obtaining a FHA 203K loan. This is a greatplace to give the listing agent and seller a heads up because 1) if the property isnot currently in the FHA required condition, they know you have a strategy toaddress all necessary repairs and 2) FHA 203K loans may require more inspec-tions and different dates and deadlines than a typical transaction.

It has been my experience that many clients are awarded the winning bidbecause their offer specified the buyer will be obtaining a FHA 203K loan. This isespecially the case when bidding on foreclosure, REO, bank owned and shortsale properties because the bank knows the loan can close despite the condi-tion, unlike all other loan types.

When obtaining a FHA 203K loan, all work is done after your closing, so theclosing timeframe is similar to a typical transaction - real estate agents and sell-ers love this.

Once your inspection has been completed and you have received all estimatesgiving you a breakdown of the costs of the work to be done, your FHA 203Klender will order the appraisal.

The appraiser will go out to the property and give an “as-is” value as well as an“after improved” value.

FHA 203K FeasibilityStudy or Full WorkWrite Up Ordered &Estimates Calculated

6)TheAppraisal is Ordered

(FHA 203K Lender)

Now that the appraisal has been completed and received, your loan numberscan be finalized. On a purchase, the maximum loan amount and down payment(3.5%) are calculated and based on the sum of the purchase price, repairs andcontingency reserves, or 110% of the “after improved” value, whichever is less.(see below example)

On a refinance, the maximum loan amount is based on the sum of the loan pay-off, closing costs, prepaids, repairs and contingency reserves, or 97.75 * (110%of the “after improved” value), whichever is less.

The contingency reserve is the required buffer, covering unforeseen situationsthat may cause you to need more money to complete your project. Dependingon your project’s complexity, the lender will appropriate 10% to 20% of the totalremodeling costs to the contingency reserve. After completing your project, allunused money will be applied to the principal balance of your loan.

On REO, short sale and vacant properties, AnnieMac Renovation Lending willtake 15% for a contingency fund and must be a FHA 203K Standard loan.

7)Verifying the LoanAmount

(Homebuyer & FHA 203K Lender, Homebuyer & Contractorand/or FHA 203K Consultant)

Congratulations! The offer has been accepted, the clock has now started and it’stime for you to:

• Order your inspection: your 203K Lender will guide you through this. NOTE: If you think it is possible that you will be obtaining a FHA 203K Standard loan, you will want to have the FHA 203K Consultant do a feasibilitystudy prior to performing the full work write up. Contact your FHA 203K lender for details.

• Meet with the contractor and FHA 203K Consultant to go over the estimate of all the repairs, updates and rehab that will be done to the property.

• Contact your FHA 203K lender to discuss the outcome of your meetings with your contractor and FHA 203K Consultant and determine the best FHA 203K to suit your needs.

If you have additional repairs required as an outcome of yourhome inspection, these repairs can be included into the esti-mate, as well.

Example of an

FHA 203KPurchase:

6

• Purchase Price of Property: $250,000

• Total of Bids: $30,000

• Contingency Reserves (10-20% of total bids): $3000 (10% of bids)

• Total Project Cost: $283,000

• “After Improved” Value (appraisal): $300,000

1) Decrease your bids on the work to be done, or

2) Bring the difference to the closing table along withyour down payment. Because of the 110% loan to value buffer, this very rarely happens but it is good to be aware of.

Maximum Loan Amount is the lesser of: Total Project Cost = $283,000 (see above)

OR

110% * After Improved Value (appraisal) = $330,000 (110% * $300,000)

(For this example, the Total Project Cost is less, so your down payment will be calculated off of this number.)

3.5% x $283,000 = $9905

It’s okay to go over the After ImprovedValue (the appraised value after allrepairs) as long as you don’t go over110% of this value. If you do exceed110% of your After Improved Value, youwill either have to:

Example of an

FHA 203KRefinance:

• Current Value of Property: $235,000

• Payoff of Existing Loan: $223,000

• Closing Costs: $3500

• Prepaids: $2500 (setting up a new escrow account)

The first step when doing a FHA 203K refinance loan is to determinethe current value of your property. Without doing an appraisal,there’s no way to know the exact value. To get an idea of the currentvalue of your home, you can:

1) Call your real estate agent to reference comparable property sales in your area.

2) Reference the county assessor’s website.

3) Utilize an online value estimator such as www.zillow.com.

You will need to have a little equity. Our general rule of thumb isat least 5%.

*Remember if you currently have an escrow account (i.e. where your taxes &home insurance payments are included in your mortgage payment) on yourloan, it will be refunded to you within 30-60 days.

• Total of Bids: $30,000

• Contingency Reserves (10-20% of total bids): $3000 (10% of bids)

• Total Project Cost: $262,000

• “After Improved” Value (appraisal): $275,000

Maximum Loan Amount is whichever is less: Total Project Cost = $262,000 (see above)

OR

97.75% * (110% * After Improved Value) = $295,693 (110% * $275,000)

(For this example, the Total Project Cost is less, so your down payment will be calculated off of this number.)

For this example the Total Project Cost is less, so you will not be required to bring any money to the closing table. If yourTotal Project Cost did exceed $295,693 (for this example only), you would be required to bring the difference to the clos-ing table or you could decrease your bids by the desired amount.

Remember, you will always skip a monthly payment after closing your purchase or refinance. Your first payment is not dueuntil the month following the month after your closing (e.g. you close in May, your first payment is not due until July).

FHA 203K STANDARDWhile the extent of the rehabilitation covered by theFHA 203K Standard loan may range from relativelyminor projects to a home that is demolished and rebuilt,this loan is primarily used for more complex renovationprojects for which plans, FHA consultants, engineersand/or architects are required.

With the FHA 203K Standard, you are not required tooccupy the property until it is habitable. Because FHArealizes there may be additional cost of living expensesduring the project, you can finance up to 6 months ofmortgage payments into the loan! Due to the complexi-ty of these projects, 6 months is the amount of timeavailable to complete the project; however, extensionsare allowed if justified e.g. weather delays.

Unlike the FHA 203K Streamline, the FHA 203KStandard is not capped at $35,000 of the total projectcost. The minimum amount of money required on theproject is $5000 & the maximum amount of moneyavailable to improve or upgrade your home is based onthe lesser of the following:

1. FHA Lending Limits per your county

For Lending Limits in your county visithttps://entp.hud.gov/idapp/html/hicostlook.cfm

2. The maximum amount of loan the client qualifies for

3. Purchase Price + Total amount of your bids + Contingency Reserves +Fees.

ELIGIBLE IMPROVEMENTS FOR THE FHA 203KSTANDARD INCLUDE:

• Structural alterations and reconstruction such as chimney repair, additions to structure, installation of additional bath(s), skylights, finished attics/basements, etc.

• Modernization and improvements to the home’s function such as remodeled bathrooms/kitchens and a permanentlyinstalled appliances

• Elimination of health and safety hazards

• Changes that improve appearance and eliminate obsolescence, including connecting to public water or sewer, heating, air conditioning, electrical systems

• Reconditioning or replacing plumbing, including interior whirlpool bathtubs

• Energy conservation improvements such as double-pane windows, insulated exterior steel doors, caulking, weather stripping, etc.

INELIGIBLE IMPROVEMENTS FOR THE FHA203K STANDARD INCLUDE:

Luxury items and improvements are not eligible as a costof rehabilitation. These include:

Because of the size and complexity of the FHA 203KStandard, FHA requires a FHA 203K Consultant be involved inyour project. While you are able to select your contractor, yourlender will assign the FHA 203K Consultant to your project.

You will find the FHA 203K Consultant very helpful as theywill assist you and your contractor in determining the scopeof repairs, the budget for the work to be done, verify all workis completed satisfactorily and as stated by the contractorand manage all disbursements of money.

FOR EXAMPLE,you are under contract to buy a home for $100,000 inBurlington County, where the FHA Loan Limit is$406,250. You are approved for up to $500,000. Aftermeeting with the FHA 203K Consultant andContractor, you plan to put $150,000 in improvementsinto this property (contingency and fees = $15,000).

The maximum loan amount is the lesser of the following:

STEPS 1-3 SHOULD BE COMPLETE IN 5-10 DAYS.

1. SCHEDULE REHABILITATION MEETING: After your offer is accepted and you have selected a contractor, you will meet with your contractor and FHA 203K Consultant at the property to determine the total cost of the required and optional repairs for the feasibility analysis and work write-up. During this meeting the FHA 203K Consultant performs an inspection of the property to determine any potential health and safety concerns as well as the adequacy of existing structure, roof, plumbing, electrical, heating/cooling, etc.

* REMEMBER: Do not pay for 2 inspections. Since you arerequired to have an inspection performed by the FHA 203KConsultant, do not hire another home inspector prior to this.

2. OUTCOME OF MEETING: You, the FHA 203K Consultant & yourcontractor will reach an agreement on the estimate of all repairs to be made. IF you are no longer interested in this property due to the outcome of this meeting, you simply terminate the contract to buy the property.

3. FEASIBILITY ANALYSIS: The FHA 203K Consultant will determine if the amount of repairs plus the sales price (or current mortgage balance if refinancing) makes this transaction feasible for you to proceed.

If the project is feasible, the consultant will prepare a work write-upand submit to the borrower/lender within 48 hours.

4. WORK WRITE UP: This report is provided by your FHA 203K Consultant and includes the following:

a) A detailed General Description of the property “as-is” in a narrative form

b) The Scope of Rehabilitation that will include a narrative of required repairs and any additional work requested by the client

c) All applicable FHA forms for review, contractor and consultant agreements and Architectural

Exhibits for the work

e) A detailed HUD/FHA Home Inspection Report

f) A complete Job Specifications and Bid request form to gather bids from contractors

g) An initial Draw Request package with Re-Cap of Sub-Totals

5. ORDER APPRAISAL: see steps 6-10 (located on pages 5-9)

FOR EACH DRAW REQUEST:

• The borrower or contractor will need to contactthe FHA 203K Consultant to initiate a draw.

A ten percent (10%) holdback is required on eachdisbursement released from the rehabilitationescrow account to insure all work is completed.
