One of the largest 203k consultants in the nation with over 2,500 projects completed since 1994. While HUD doesn't guarantee the quality or warrant the work a consultant provides it is easy to see that exerience is everything. You need to find a consultant that has a few projects under his belt and has stood the test of time.
Experience counts
The 203k was created in 1961 as a way to refinance or purchase a home and get money to complete necessary repairs on 1-4 unit buildings. The program wasn't being used like it could have been and in 1994 "consultants" were introduced to the program in an effort to take some of the mystery out of the program. Now you have a friend in the business that can litterally hold your hand and get you through the maze of paperwork need to complete the transaction. Rather than have each and every home buyer read the manual and all of the mortgagee letters that revised it, a '203k Consultant' is responsible to keep up with the program and it's changes. We have always been available to anyone, anywhere in the country who has questions about the program, whether you are a buyer, contractor looking to become a consultant or just looking to get more work, a home inspector looking for additional streams of income, we are glad to assist you in any way we are able. We have been completing 203k projects since 1994.

When Mike Young took his first seminar from HUD on the 203k program it was evident to him that there was no real guidance for being a consultant. He was quick to seek out another consultant who had been doing a few projects and on day two of their meeting came up with some excel spreadsheet with the beginnings of the first software for 203k consultants he was to offer. In 1995 the 203k was going strong and Mike hired a programmer to create his first 'dos' version of the software. Also in 1995 Mike had to hire and train about 15 consultants for his own business and went on the road teaching consultants around the country. At one point there were three 'for profit' companies listed on the HUD website as official trainers for 203k consultants. Mike had trained the other two. Mike traveled extensively for several years from Allentown PA to Orlando FL, to San Diego CA, to Seattle WA and many places inbetween. In 1998 he had the first of his 'Windows' versions created and in 2004 was the biggest advancement to his software offering. In 2008 there were minor updates to his 2004 version to get the release 8.0.167 which is the current version. Mike is currently updating the program again for a release in mid 2009 of a web based version. We train consultants, lenders, contractors, home inspectors, architects, engineers, handymen, and appraisers how to become 203k consultants.
