Frequently Asked Questions
Not Sure Limited or Standard?
Both combine purchase and rehab into one FHA mortgage — Limited fits smaller, non-structural improvements with a lighter process; Standard supports larger or structural renovations with a HUD consultant and fuller draw schedule.
Choose the path that matches your scope — not the one that sounds simpler if your work is structural.
Picking the wrong path wastes weeks — we size the scope against HUD rules before you go under contract.
