REO Offering 3.5% Closing Cost Assistance

josh groesbeck — Wed, 13 Apr 2011 17:35:09 +0000

Fannie Mae announced Monday that borrowers purchasing a Fannie Mae-owned property through HomePath, the GSE’s REO disposition operation, will receive up to 3.5 percent in closing cost assistance.
The initial offer must be submitted on or after April 11, 2011, and the sale must close on or before June 30, 2011 to be eligible for the incentive. Fannie Mae said it can give no assurance on the time required to close, but initial offers submitted after May 15, 2011 are particularly questionable for closing by the incentive deadline of June 30.

Waiting To Buy A Home

josh groesbeck — Tue, 12 Apr 2011 15:47:19 +0000

Buying a home is a personal decision that is usually the single largest investment of a lifetime. This real estate downturn is now bigger than the great depression, fact. Prices are soft but there are still a lot of reasons to be very serious about shopping for your future home. If you are sitting on the fence waiting to time the market looking for the absolute bottom please continue to read. The cost of your home loan is going to go up and that is going to affect you more than a sticker price on your home. Joshua Groesbeck 208-353-7131 or josh@homeswithjosh.com

Interest Rates Are Increasing

Interest rates have increased almost 3/4 of a point in the last six months. Most experts expect rates to continue to increase through the year. Interest rates along with price determine the overall cost of a home. Even with prices softening, if interest rates rise, it may be less expensive to buy now rather than wait.
The 30-Year Mortgage May Disappear

There has been much debate regarding government’s role in providing support for homeownership. There are several experts who believe If Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac’s roles are eliminated, or even limited, it may be the end to the 30-year mortgage. This concern is addressed in MSN Real Estate’s Is it curtains for the 30-year mortgage?
QRM Requirements Could Be Much More Stringent

Here are proposed changes to the requirements for a ‘qualified residential mortgage’:

* Certain mortgage types would be eliminated
* You would need to put a minimum of 20% down
* You would need a minimum 690 FICO score
* The ratios of income to both the mortgage payment and overall debt would become much more conservative (28% and 36%)

There would be loans available to purchasers who don’t qualify under the new rules. However, they will probably be more expensive to the buyer (both in rate and costs).
Rents Are Expected to Increase

The supply of available rentals is decreasing and the demand is increasing. That will lead to an increase in rental costs throughout the year. The Wall Street Journal this week quoted a report by Reis, Inc:

“Expect vacancies to continue declining, and rents rising through the rest of 2011 at an even faster pace.”

Bottom Line

You may be waiting on the sidelines to see if prices will continue to depreciate before you purchase a home. The mortgage expense is a major piece in the overall financial picture of homeownership. Make sure you consider it when timing your decision.
