Contingency Reserve
A contingency reserve is an additional amount of money set aside to cover unexpected costs that may arise during the renovation process. It's typically 10-20% of the total renovation cost. This reserve helps ensure that you have funds available if unforeseen expenses occur, helping to keep your project on track.
Estimated Taxes & Insurance
Property taxes are generally estimated to be 1.2% of the home's value, but may vary based on your location. Annual homeowners insurance is roughly 0.35% of the home's value but can change based on insurer. Your loan specialist can help you determine property tax and insurance rates in your area.
Expected Home Value Increase
The expected increase in home value to qualify for a home improvement mortgage can vary depending on the lender and loan program.
FHA 203(k) loans typically require that the improvements will increase the property value by at least the amount of the repairs.
