Fix-up funds: For big projects, construction and renovation loans can be a better bet than home equity lines or credit cards

Article Abstract:

Construction and renovation loans provide better options as compared to home equity or credit lines, while undertaking massive renovations or construction. The renovation and construction loans are given by almost every moneylender and offer similar interest rates, can be bundled with any type of mortgage and do not have any maximum value except the presumed appraisal value of the house after the completion of the fix-up.
