Renovation Loans

Roll the purchase (or refinance) and the renovation into a single loan — and turn a fixer into the home you actually want.

The right house in the right neighborhood often needs work. Renovation loans let you finance the purchase and the improvements together, based on the home's value after the work is done — so you're not draining savings or juggling a separate construction line.

We arrange more than ten renovation options across our lending partners, from light cosmetic updates to full gut rehabs, for both buyers and existing homeowners.

Who it’s for

Buy-and-renovate

Finance the purchase and the work in one loan, based on the after-renovation value.

Refinance-and-improve

Existing owners can roll a remodel into a single new mortgage.

Right house, wrong condition

Win the home that needs work without draining savings or juggling a construction line.

Tell us your scenario

A 10-minute call or the contact form: how you're paid, your goals, and the property. No credit pull to start.

2

We shop the right lenders

As a brokerage we match your file to specialty lenders built for it — not one bank's single guideline.

3

Pre-qualify with a plan

You get a clear path: the program, the documents, and the timeline, with a licensed loan officer on your file.

4

Close with confidence

We manage underwriting to the finish line and hand you off to a smooth closing day.

Common questions

What can renovation money be used for?

Anything from kitchens and baths to structural repairs, additions, roofs and systems, depending on the program.

Do I pay for the work up front?

No — funds are drawn as the project hits milestones, so you're not financing the whole remodel out of pocket.

Is it one loan or two?

One. The purchase (or refinance) and the renovation are combined into a single mortgage with one closing.

Can I use any contractor?

Most programs require a licensed contractor and a documented scope and bid. We'll walk you through the requirements.
