This impromptu episode goes off the rails in the best way possible! We dive into Ovie’s quest for that elusive hat trick to break Gretzky’s record (pre-game hype for the game we are going to tonight), Ang’s son catching for the first time, and a trip down memory lane discussing Ang’s softball days, while Mya proudly played the role of the softball Mom…Oh, and did we mention Chris played baseball?

Renovating just got a whole lot easier! In this episode, Mya, Ang, and Chris unpack the Fannie Mae Homestyle Renovation Loan—a flexible option for financing home upgrades. They compare it to the FHA 203K (be sure to check out that episode), covering down payments, renovation limits, and who qualifies (spoiler: it’s not just for primary residences). Plus, they break down consultant roles, project scope, and what to expect from the loan process. If you’re dreaming of turning a fixer-upper into a masterpiece, this one's a must-listen!

• The Fannie Mae Homestyle Renovation Loan offers more flexibility than FHA loans.
• Down payments depend on property type and whether you’re living there.
• Works for primary homes, vacation spots, and investment properties.
• Loan amount is based on the home's future value—hello, instant equity!
• Consultants keep projects on track (no DIY disasters allowed).
• Mortgage payments can be rolled in during renovations.

Buying a house that’s “full of potential” (aka, needs a ton of work)? The FHA 203K loan might be your new best friend. In this episode, Mya, Ang and Chris, break down this renovation loan—how it lets buyers roll home improvement costs into their mortgage (without needing a pile of cash upfront). They tackle the differences between the limited and standard 203K, why an FHA consultant might become your new BFF, and how loan limits vary by location. If you're a first-time homebuyer or just love a good home makeover story, this one's for you.

• The FHA 203K loan lets buyers renovate with less upfront cash.
• Two types: Limited & Standard.
• No gold-plated jacuzzies—luxury upgrades aren’t covered.
• FHA consultants keep budgets realistic (no "oops, we need another $20K" surprises).
• Contractors must be pre-approved—no sketchy handymen allowed.
• Loan limits vary by location and don’t match conventional loans.
• Buyers can roll in up to six months of mortgage payments while their dream home gets a facelift.
• Great option for those wanting a home glow-up without draining their savings!
