The HomeStyle® Renovation Mortgage permits borrowers to include financing for home improvements in a purchase or refinance transaction of an existing home. HomeStyle® Renovation is a financing option offered through Fannie Mae.
According to Fannie Mae: The HomeStyle® Renovation Mortgage enables a borrower to obtain a purchase transaction mortgage or a limited cash-out refinance mortgage and receive funds to cover the costs of repairs, remodelling, renovations or energy efficient improvements to the property.
There are no required improvements or restrictions on the types of repairs allowed but there is a $5,000 minimum dollar amount for the repairs. Repairs or improvements, however, must be permanently affixed to the real property and add value to the property.
When HomeStyle® Renovation is used for energy-related improvements, borrowers are required to obtain an energy report to identify recommended energy improvements to the property and the estimated cost savings associated with those improvements.
