Finances and Your Credit ...

Preferred Lenders ...

When you're ready to purchase your new home, you'll need to locate a lender to finance this purchase.  Very few of us have enough cash on hand to purchase a home without obtaining a mortgage.  There are so many different lenders to choose from.  Of course, you are free to choose any lender that you wish.  I highly recommend to all of my clients -- talk to at least two lenders before making a commitment - it's like getting a second opinion from your doctor.  When working with a lender, make sure your lender tells you everything about your loan.  You do not want any surprises.  When choosing a lender, you want a loan officer who will tell you what you need to know - not what they think you want to hear!

Good News From FHA & VA ...

VA has increased their loan limits above $417,000.  However, they will not offer 100% financing above $417,000.  They will require a 25% down payment on the difference between the sales price and $417,000.  For example, if the price of the home is $500,000, the down payment required would be ($500,000 - $417,000) x .25 = $20,750.  The loan amount would be $500,000 - $20,750 = $479,250.  This is great news for those homes over the current VA limit with clients that have some down payment funds.

FHA has announced their 'FHA Secure' Refinancing Options.  This is directed at clients with the following issues:

- Has a non-FHA ARM that has adjusted.  This includes Interest Only ARMs.

- Has a satisfactory payment history prior to the ARM adjusting.

- The adjustment on their ARM has caused clients inability to pay.

- If there is sufficient equity in the home,  the new loan can include missed mortgage payments.

- Loans on which foreclosure proceeding have started are not eligible.

- FHA is a full documented loan.
