Actually it never really went out of style in my opinion.  It is just that is is a very under utilized mortgage program.  Why then is the title of my blog the declaration that the FNMA Homestyle is back in style?  It is because the FNMA Homepath renovation loan no longer exists.  Living and working in Florida since the great Real Estate bust the FNMA Homepath renovation loan became one of the go to products to help buyers that were not cash buyers secure financing for the purchase and the renovation of the property all in one loan.   The good news is that the FNMA Homestyle Renovation loan in many ways is a better option then the FNMA Homepath Renovation loan that used to be availalbe up until October 6th of this year.    The one huge difference is the ability to use the FNMA Homestyle ... 12/07/2014

Taking Ample Time to Choose Your West Palm Beach Buyer’s Agent “Hello there! I noticed you admiring this stunning open house.
