How To Do That Salt Lake Fixer Upper
So.... You or your client have found some Salt Lake Homes for Sale that really live up to their listing of "Salt Lake Fixer Uppers".
They meet all of the home buyers criteria, they are in a great West Jordan UT, or Sandy City area and the prices are right.
Only one problem: They need some work to make them your dream home.
The HVAC system is part of original construction, the 30 year shingles are much older than that and the windows were installed when single panes were standard. Floor coverings really need help, and the seller wont budge.
No problem: Ask your lender about the FHA 203K Streamlined renovation loan.
