Can I get a mortgage for a fixer-upper in Johns Creek?

Renovation loans such as an FHA 203(k) or a conventional renovation product let a buyer finance a Johns Creek fixer-upper and the repair costs in a single loan. These programs typically require a licensed contractor's bid and extra paperwork, and funds are released in draws as work is completed and inspected. A standard purchase loan usually will not close on a home an appraiser flags as uninhabitable. Ask a lender who handles renovation lending regularly before you write the offer.
