In Today’s housing market some homes need renovation. While some homes need repairs to bring them up to code, some need to be brought to the 21st century and others just need a touch of style to appeal to buyers.
A Renovation Mortgage allows a home buyer or homeowner to renovate a home and roll the cost of most home improvements into one mortgage loan.
This is 1 mortgage, 1 interest rate and 1 monthly payment.
In San Diego, Home buyers have several choices when it comes to renovation mortgages.
