It would be cheap, as in around 90K. I'm currently wrapping up some work on my home, but don't think I'll finish in order to put it on the market in the next couple months. I'd rather not have to work every weekend to do so either, as we have a 1.5 year old and are expecting. I'd like to simply get an <a href="http://www.zillow.com/fha-loan/">FHA loan</a> on the bank-owned property, then sell our property next March. We'd live in the new home in order to meet FHA requirements. Could we get an FHA loan under these circumstances? Our current home is worth around 260K to 280K, based on last 12 month sales in the area. We have around 100K in equity. I do not want to <a href="http://www.zillow.com/refinance/">refinance</a> the house.
