Can I get a fha loan on a home that has dry rot on trim of the house on different parts through out, open permits because fence was not done to code, and also a garage conversion not permitted and has questionable electrical work, and also with no stove in kitchen should I try to pursue this home or move on to the next one. by ronniec0016843 from West Palm Beach, Florida.

FHA would require all of the deficiencies be repaired or corrected as a condition of the loan. However, if you really like the home and the neighborhood, it is probable that an FHA 203k loan can provide the funds necessary to get the required repairs/improvements done. I've done plenty of 203ks that has converted a dog-of-a-property into a gorgeous home. It does take a little more work and there are additional costs involved, but if you really like the neighborhood and want to see this become your home, it is well worth it. Look for a local Mortgage Banker / Broker that is a certified 203k Originator. ~ Bert Carpenter, The LoansA2z team of NOVA Home Loans ~ NMLS 40586 ~ Licensed in Arizona (AZLO0911876 / AZBK0902429), Washington (WALO40586 / WACL3087) and California (CADOC40586 / CAFLL6036566).

All of those problems would need to be corrected prior to FHA approving the home for financing.. typically, if there are that many problems, it's usually best you find something else.. if they have all these issues you can see, imagine what you don't see??
