Federal Housing Administration (FHA) / HUD
The FHA 203(k) loan allows Providence homebuyers and existing owners to finance both purchase (or refinance) and renovation in a single mortgage. The Limited 203(k) covers minor repairs up to $75,000; the Standard 203(k) accommodates major structural work up to the 2025 FHA county loan limit. Providence's older housing stock makes this program a strong fit for buyers seeking to purchase and rehabilitate.
Limited: up to $75,000 rehab; Standard: major work up to county FHA limit.
