Ted Is an experienced Lender that I would recommend. He has worked with several of my buyers and is always on top of things. He thinks quickly and makes necessary adjustments to make sure the deal always happens. I have trust in Ted and would recommend him to anybody.

- David Brown.

I have utilized Ted’s services twice based on a recommendation from a friend. Both times I was very pleased. Ted is very responsive, price competitive and honest. Ted always considers his clients interests first. I would definitely utilize Ted again.

- Roxanne Oulman.

Ted is an amazing loan officer. Ted is incredibly resourceful when it comes to packaging loans to get underwriter approval. When other lenders couldn’t help my buyers, I have called on Ted to find creative, ethical solutions to get the loan approved and closed. Ted is extremely professional and proficient at his job. I highly recommend Ted as an experienced loan officer, especially if the loan package is a difficult one. Put Ted to the task…you won’t be disappointed.

- Dale Warfel.

Ted is a rock star! Coming into our deal with challenged credit, Ted was able to get us into an FHA loan with reasonable terms. Throughout the whole process, he held our hands and was professional. I am looking forward to using him again when it comes time to refi. I would definitely recommend everyone to give him a shot for any loan needs.

- Michael B.

We recently worked with Ted to buy our first home in San Rafael. He was great. Very efficient, always answers the phone, and no nonsense! He got us a great rate and closed on time! Answered all my first time buyer questions and made us feel at ease about our large purchase!! I would recommend him to anyone looking to purchase a home!! Thanks Ted!!!

- Stephanie P.

Ted was absolutely professional. Most lenders said we could not qualify for a loan or we had to wait a couple of months. Ted went out of his way to ensure that we would qualify for a loan. Ted was able to close escrow in less than 30 days. He always responded to my emails or calls. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs a caring professional lender.

How Does a Renovation Loan Work?

Depending on the types of repairs you plan to do, ​you have two options​ when it comes to securing a FHA 203(k) Renovation Loan: Limited and Standard.

The Limited 203(k) loan

The Limited 203(k) loan is for non-structural or “cosmetic” repairs. It covers up to $35,000 in renovation costs. With a Limited loan, you can do nearly anything that doesn’t affect the home’s structure! ​Think kitchen and bathroom remodels, carpet and flooring replacement, painting, appliance replacement, and much more.

The Standard 203(k) loan

The Standard 203(k) loan is a loan for projects with repair costs over $35,000. It can be used for structural or non-structural repairs. With a Standard Loan, you have even more flexibility. ​You can expand the home’s footprint, improve accessibility for differently abled people, and even move the home to a different site.

What You Need To Know About Construction Loans

Do I need a down payment?

You may or may not need a down payment dependent on the loan program you are paid with.

How do payments work?

You'll make interest-only payments on the construction loan while your home is being built. When construction is complete, we'll modify the loan to your regular mortgage where you'll have your traditional monthly payments. We'll cover these items with you at the start so you're in the know ahead of time.

Can I do some of the construction to save some money?

While we love a good DIY project, all construction must be done by the builder.
