The HomeStyle Renovation (HSR) mortgage provides a convenient and economical way for borrowers considering moderate home improvements to make repairs and renovations with a single-close first mortgage, rather than a second mortgage, home equity line of credit, or other, more costly methods of financing.
Clear Lending offers renovation loan mortgage programs that might be right for you.
Our HomeStyle Renovation program allows borrowers to combine the purchase or refinance of a home with the costs to renovate or extensively remodel the property. At closing, an interest-earning account will escrow all funds for renovation. After all renovation work is complete, any remaining funds in the renovation escrow account will help pay down the mortgage's principal balance.
Program Highlights:
• Include in renovation loan six months of mortgage payments if borrower must vacate the house (Loan + Taxes + Insurance).
• Finance up to 97% of your home purchase and renovation costs (Refinance allows max 75% for renovation costs).
• Eligible properties: 1 - 4 units, PUDs and manufactured homes.
• 15 and 30-year terms.
• Loans from $250,000 to $806,500.
• No Minimum Credit Score but Automated Underwriting System Approval.
• Renovation loans for primary, secondary, and investment homes.
• A minimum of a 10% and maximum of 15% contingency reserve is required and can be financed into the loan.
• Renovation funds are escrowed in an interest-bearing account.
• Finance soft costs (architectural services, engineering, permit fees, etc.).

I would like to thank the entire team of Clear Lending for making possible my loan after so many attempts. I read the google reviews and I was pretty impressed and so I decided to give a shot. I am so glad I trusted them the loan approval and my home search. This is a crazy market but with patience I was able to accomplish what I have been waiting for so long. I am a veteran and my scores are not the best. Nonetheless Joan, Patti and Jorge made this possible. Thanks again guys I will always be in debt to you all.
Joan is simply amazing! He truely cares about his clients and works day in and day out to ensure they are satisfied. We used a VA loan and despite the credit hiccups we have had in the past he was able to assist us and give us a better rate than was offered by other lenders. Joan showed us that mortgage lenders are people too and he really understood our circumstances and our need to be able to close soon after contacting him. He is simply the best and we would recommend him to anyone else using a VA home loan or any other type of home loan.
Thanks Joan, Patricia and Samantha for your amazing help making the purchase of my dream house possible. I really recommend Clear Lending and its team. I remember searching for local lenders who would lend borrowers with low credit scores and I found them. I read some reviews and realized some had been in my same situation. I applied and after 67 days I closed the purchase of the cutest house! They even helped me negotiate with sellers to get them pay all closing costs. Joan I am so thankful I will refer you everyone that is in need to buy a house. I will never forget what you and your team have done for me and my family. Thanks, thanks and thanks again!!!!
