With HFS, checking your options uses a soft credit check, so there is no impact on your credit. For Lyon Financial and RenoFi, ask the lender how they check credit when you apply.
No. Lyon Financial offers unsecured loans from $5,000 to $200,000, and HFS loans need no equity and no appraisal. RenoFi is a home equity loan, but it is based on what your home will be worth after the remodel, not what it is worth today.
No. With RenoFi you keep your existing mortgage, and Lyon Financial and HFS loans are separate from your mortgage.
Lyon Financial offers terms of 15, 20, 25 and 30 years. RenoFi and HFS give you your terms when you apply; HFS sends them within 24 hours once you are conditionally approved.
Yes. Lyon Financial funds much more than pools, and HFS funds all home improvements, so kitchens, bathrooms, backyards and additions are all covered.
No. The loans come from these independent lenders and are subject to their credit approval. We are happy to help you compare the options and price your project first.
