MN Home Improvement Loans

Just purchasing a home and it needs a few repairs?  Or perhaps you are already a homeowner in need of funds to "fix up" your castle?

Either way, you may want to stay away from the sometimes expensive rehab loans and look to the State as a wonderful alternative.

The State of MN offers a very attractive program for your home improvement projects for MN residents. 

 Appropriately called the "Fix Up Fund".

Here are the highlights:

  • Household income at or below $96,500
  • Property must be owner-occupied
  • You can hire a contractor or do the work yourself
  • Up to a 20 year term
  • Loan amounts up to $35,000
  • Most repairs that will improve the efficiency of your home are okay...no swimming pools, please!
  • Whoa!  And those who complete the improvements may be eligible for a rebate, up to 35% of the cost of repairs.  Nice!

The best part is the rates are VERY low...currently at 5.99%!

For more information, contact a sponsoring lender today.
