Home Repairs Can Take Over Your Weekend

Tweet

 

As we approach the weekend (of a short week thanks to Memorial Day) and the summer is near, it's time to talk about how to avoid home repairs taking over the weekends. Every home can use a little TLC it seems...even newer homes. And a project or 2 like a new shower curtain in the bathroom or replacing some shrubs outside can be simple and quick. But what happens when those projects keep adding up and growing into full blown home repairs and renovations? Your weekends become full of work instead of relaxing.

Don't let this happen. Instead of do it yourself weekends, get the work done to your house you want or need in one fell swoop. Sure you may enjoy working in the yard or painting a room. But what happens when you need to replace windows, repaint the entire house or remodel the kitchen? Hiring a professional and paying for these home repairs with an affordable monthly payment is a viable option in today's housing market.

In fact, with the home repair financing option FHA 203k, you can make all kinds of improvements to your house that you've been wanting to do. Learn more about the nuts-and-bolts of the 203k here: What is the FHA 203k?

What are some home repairs you can finance this way?

• Energy efficient replacement windows
• Roof repair/replacement
• Deck/porch repair
• Electrical upgrades
• Siding replacement/repainting
• Driveway repair

You can also finance home improvements like a deck, kitchen remodel, bathroom addition or basement finishing. The cost for the 203k is about $6 a month added onto your house payment for every $1,000 in home repairs you finance.
