Lower Down Payment Requirements On These Homes...



I wanted to make you aware of some guideline changes on purchasing and refinancing second homes.

Our maximum loan to value ratio on second homes used to be 80%. 

...In other words you had to put down 20% on a second home purchase.

Now we can go up to 90% on second home purchases, or rate and term refinances.

...just wanted to let ya know!  
That's it for today! 
  
Have a good day today!  ...and thanks for reading.

How To Reduce The Waiting Period For A Foreclosure On A Conventional Loan...



Here's a way to possibly reduce the foreclosure seasoning requirements on a conventional loan.

If you open up the Conventional Loan underwriting guidelines and look up foreclosures it will say you have to wait 7 years before you can get a loan.

A possible way around this is to let me run your file through the automated underwritng engine.

I've seen the engine give approvals for people at 4 or 5 years out of a foreclosure. 

...and, if it gives an approval at 4 years we can do the loan!   
That's it for today!
