Oh! Or more likely they mean the thing will have to appraise at cost plus renovations so don’t try to take out too high a loan. But this seems like more of a warning for the sellers than the buyers.
“THIS HOUSE IS A HANDYMAN SPECIAL AND NEEDS A LOT OF TLC AND IS BEING SOLD AS-IS, AND IS SUBJECT TO RENOVATION LOAN QUALIFYING PARAMETERS.”
It just means don’t ask them to drop the price! Ha.
Presumably they don’t force you to take out a construction loan to buy the place. I would you would be free to use your own millions.
So maybe they are just warning you that if you do take out an FHA construction loan, you will have to follow the FHA’s rules. Closing costs and the mortgage rate will also be higher.

A Priest and a Rabbi are sitting on a bus and the priest says, “Tell me, rabbi, is it still a requirement of the Jewish faith that you do not eat pork?”
“That is true, yes,” the rabbi replies.
“But I wonder,” the priest goes on, “Did curiosity ever get the better of you? Were you ever so tempted by the smell of bacon that you tried it?”
“I must be honest, I did once taste it,” the rabbi tells him.
“And how did you find it?” the priest adds.
“Well, if I’m being truthful, I admit I found it delicious,” says the rabbi.
A short while later, the rabbi asks the priest something. “Tell me, Father, is it still a requirement of your religion that, as a priest, you do not have sex?”
“That is indeed the case,” the priest replies.
“But did curiosity ever get the better of you?” asks the rabbi.
“Since you have been so honest with me, rabbi, and since we are both men of god I will confess that yes, I did once have sex with a woman,” the priest tells him.
“Beats the hell out of a bacon sandwich, doesn’t it?” says the rabbi.

“I did read somewhere though about the urban legend (supposedly true) of the Jello twins – Lemonjello and Oranjelllo.”
When I was growing up we were told about Orangejuice and Lemonjuice (“juice” pronounced “joooiiice”). I swore they were real.
400.
And now I bid thee good evening.
