Financing Types

FHA Financing

FHA financing is for those who have good credit or may have had credit issues in
the past, but have no late payments on their recent credit history.  This is a loan that
is backed by the Federal Housing Administration and as such is subject to their
guidelines and restrictions.  However, their rates are usually very competitive.  FHA
requires 3% down on all properties.  Down payment assistance has been available in
the past for those who need it, but due to changes by the Housing and Urban
Development, this may soon be a thing of the past.  If you are interested in using a
down payment assistance program, please contact me immediately.

Conventional Financing

Conventional financing is for those with excellent credit ratings.  Rates are
extremely competitive in this market and you will have the option to waive you
escrows (taxes and insurance) with this type of financing.  Down payments vary
depending upon your situation and the property you are buying.

SubPrime Market

This is what is considered niche financing.  Many lenders have certain products
available to those who have  certain credit scores and meet their criteria.  Your
down payment will vary according to your credit score.

VA Financing

This is only available to those who have served in the armed forces and their
families.  There is a VA funding fee on each of these loans that must be paid up
front and can be considered part of the closing costs.  Veterans can get into a home
with little or no down payment.

Refinances

With the market fluctuations and all the talk about what is happening and what is
going to happen, let us help you decide if it is a good time for you to refinance.  If
you can drop your rate or convert your current ARM mortgage to a fixed rate, then
it may be worth it to refinance.  If you have a current mortgage and have made all
your payments on time, you may qualify for a streamline refinance where only your
mortgage history is considered.
