How renovation loans work

01

Scope the work

A clear repair budget, contractor bid, and timeline help determine which programs may fit.

02

Understand the process

Renovation loans can involve extra documentation, appraisals, and controlled disbursement of funds.

03

Compare alternatives

Depending on the property and your equity, a separate home equity product may also be worth discussing.

  • Buyers considering a fixer-upper
