Buy a fixer-upper or renovate your current home with a single loan. Arise Above Construction is your experienced 203(k) contractor, guiding you from financing to finished project.
The FHA 203(k) Rehabilitation Loan is a government-backed mortgage that allows you to finance both the purchase of a home AND the cost of renovations in a single loan. This eliminates the need for separate construction financing and simplifies the entire process.
Whether you're buying a property that needs work or want to renovate your current home, a 203(k) loan lets you borrow based on the future value of your home after improvements—giving you access to funds you might not otherwise qualify for.
2024 Program Update: HUD increased the Limited 203(k) cap from $35,000 to $75,000—the first increase in nearly 30 years. The rehabilitation period was also extended from 6 to 9 months, and consultant fees can now be included in your financing.
