Ready to Buy and Renovate?

Yes — renovation mortgages let Indiana buyers combine the purchase price and rehab costs in a single loan. FHA 203(k), HomeStyle, and VA purchase-plus-rehab programs base the loan on after-improved value, hold rehab funds in escrow, and release dollars through draws after inspection. Ryan and Steve help fixer-upper buyers skip the second loan.

Traditional financing often forces a split: a purchase loan for the house and cash or a separate credit line for repairs. Renovation mortgages roll both into one note so you close once and renovate with escrowed funds instead of draining savings after moving in.

The loan amount reflects purchase price plus approved renovation costs, subject to after-improved appraised value and program limits. Rehab dollars do not land in your checking account at closing — they sit in escrow and pay licensed contractors as milestones pass inspection.

FHA 203(k), Fannie Mae HomeStyle, and VA renovation each handle purchase-plus-rehab slightly differently. Ryan and Steve match your fixer-upper, scope, and down payment to the program that clears underwriting at Luminate Bank.

Clear bids and a realistic scope keep one-loan purchase-and-renovate files moving through appraisal and escrow.

Purchase-plus-rehab follows the same rhythm — plan, underwrite, close, draw — whether you choose FHA, HomeStyle, or VA.
