Monarch Bay Renovations

Baltimore Renovation Financing · Honest options

Baltimore renovation financing. Honest options.

0% intro and low-monthly-payment plans on qualifying projects. Fixed-APR up to $500K on the rest. FHA 203(k) lender-ready bids. We work with vetted lenders — no card-stacking, no HELOC pressure.

Three Lender Paths

Three lenders. One honest match.

We don't push a single product. We match the lender to the project — based on size, credit profile, and what's actually going to work for you.

01

SFC

Best for: Most residential projects ($10K–$250K)

0% intro plans + low monthly payments

A Truist company — and MBR is a direct dealer, so you apply right here under us. Choose from 6-month same-as-cash (0%), a 25-month 0% equal-pay plan, a 5-year low-payment plan, or a 12–15 year stretch plan for the smallest monthly payment. Roughly 60-second approval, e-sign on your phone, no prepayment penalty.

02

HFS Financial

Best for: Large rehabs ($100K–$500K)

Up to $500K · 20-year terms

Fixed-APR renovation financing. Better terms than personal loans at this size. Our rep Jenna Barron has closed dozens of MBR projects.

03

FHA 203(k) Loans

Best for: Home purchase + renovation combined

One mortgage. Buy + Rebuild.

If you're buying a home that needs work, you can finance both in one FHA loan. MBR has an in-house FHA Consultant and engineers — most contractors don't.

The honesty section

What we won't pitch.

  • Stacking 0% credit cards. They expire, the rate jacks, and you’re stuck.
  • HELOC pressure if you closed on your house less than 6 months ago.
  • Subprime "instant approval" lenders with 27% rates.
  • Hearth or other lead-flip platforms that sell your info.

If you don't qualify for SFC, HFS, or 203(k), we'll tell you on the walkthrough. We'd rather lose the deal than burn you.

What Baltimore homeowners say

★★★★★

Steve and his team did a great job on my kitchen remodel. Sergio and Frank were respectful and did clean, quality work. From the demo phase to installing cabinets, granite and plumbing, the process went smoothly. The kitchen looks great and I will be going back to these guys for more work in the future!

★★★★★

Monarch Bay did an incredible job with the complete renovation of our master suite bathroom. All the old fixtures, cabinets, tub, shower, toilet, walls and flooring were removed and an extraordinary new bathroom resulted. We told them what we wanted and the team delivered. Our bathroom is stunning. We highly recommend Monarch Bay Renovations.

★★★★★

Steven and his team completed a 3-level renovation of my newly purchased home. They took the time to ensure my vision was possible and within budget while keeping quality. Even after construction was completed they were just as attentive, answering any questions I had. I would choose Monarch Bay for any of my future renovation needs.
