  • Jumbo Loans to $3m

Vancouver FHA Loans are available up to $418,750 with just 3.5% down payment. The FHA 2010 Loan Limit for Vancouver is $418,750. Since FHA Loans over $417K are classified as FHA Jumbo, and have slightly higher interest rates, we suggest that Vancouver FHA buyers keep their loan amount to $417K to save money.

VA Loans are available in Vancouver up to $417,000 with zero downpayment. The Vancouver VA Loan Limit in 2010 is $417,000.

Vancouver Conforming Loans are available up to $418,750. Conforming purchase or refinance loans are available with a minimum of 5% downpayment or equity for Vancouver up to $417K.

Part 1: one size shoe does not fit all borrowers.

Part 1: Why FHA Loans will still be the better choice for many home buyers ie. one size shoe does not fit all borrowers!

We just posted information on the new FHA Mortgage Insurance Changes. I examined the options that now come to mind as potential competitors for the selection of a loan with low downpayment, or little equity.

We compared the following loan options:

  1. FHA Loan with 3.5% down
  2. FHA Loan with 5% down
  3. 5% down Conventional loan (yes, we offer this in california with a 680 fico)
  4. 5% down conventional loan with no MI (we pay the MI for you).

As the table below illustrates, the payment is similar between the 95% conventional loan with PMI and the FHA Loan with 3.5% down. The FHA loan requires less downpayment, and is therefore more beneficial in my analysis. However, the 95% Conventional loan with no MI now becomes the lowest payment option, in spite of a higher interest rate (required to cover the cost of the Mortgage Insurance, which is paid as a lump sum upfront by the lender at no cost to the borrower).

Check out our next post for more reasons why FHA will still be the loan of choice for many.

Here is a link to the spreadsheet of the numbers for these low down payment options.

VanDyk Mortgage is a FHA Lender offering FHA, FHA Jumbo, FHA Streamline, and FHA 203K Renovation and 203K rehab loans thoughout California and Washington state. Call Brian Skaar direct at 760-752-4480 to get started.

House Bill 5981 authorizes increased FHA Mortgage Insurance Premiums

House Bill 5981 authorizes increased FHA Mortgage Insurance Premiums

Congress passed house bill 5981 this week, authorizing FHA, The Federal Housing Administration, to increase the Annual Mortgage Insurance Premium. Here is a letter from FHA Commissioner Stevens on the MIP changes.

There is good news and bad news. The good news is that the Upfront Mortgage Insurance Premium (UFMIP on your HUD1/Good Faith Estimate) is being reduced to 1.0% from the current level of 2.25%. Now the bad news: The Annual Mortgage Insurance Premium (which is paid monthly by the FHA Borrower) is increasing from .55% to .90% for FHA loans above 95% Loan to value, and from .50% to .85% for FHA Loans at 95% or lower loan to value.

So the important questions are:

When does it go into effect? The new rates will apply to all FHA case numbers dated Sept 7, 2010 and later. FHA Case #'s prior to this date can still qualify for the existing MIP rates.

How does it effect my FHA loan? This will only effect new FHA Loans, existing FHA Loans will adhere to the their current MIP Rates (ie no changes).

Is it more expensive or cheaper than now? The overall cost to the borrower actually increases with the new MIP Rates. On a $100K home purchase, with a 4.5% 30 year fixed FHA Loan, the monthly PIMI (Principal, Interest, Mortgage Insurance) payment will be $566.94 on the new plan. The old MIP rates would have yielded a PIMI of $554.12, about $12 per month lower. You can also extrapolate your effect for your potential loan as this payment sample is per $100K purchased.

Now $12 per month is not the end of the world, but the increased monthly cost of MIP will reduce the homebuying power of Americans in a time we are trying to keep housing strong with good financing options. The cost over 5 years is about $2,133 total. FHA Jumbo Loans will feel the impact the most, as the loan amounts are much higher (up to $729,750)

However, FHA Loans still offer huge benefits to qualified borrrowers for many reasons. Check out our next post as we examine why FHA Loans are still a better choice for many homebuyers and refinancers even with the higher MIP rates.

What should I do? If you have been thinking about refinancing with a FHA Loan, purchasing with an FHA Loan, or Streamline Refinancing your FHA Loan, the time to move is now. Call us to get started, and lock in the old MIP rates for your loan before they go up.

FHA Flip rule - 1 day owned by seller OK


The Seller seasoning requirement on our FHA Loans is one day. That is correct, one day. While FHA has released guidance for lenders allowing the Flip Rule to be Waived for all Sellers until Feb 1, 2011, many lenders still require that sellers own a home for 90-180 days before it is eligible for their FHA Financing. We do not require these waiting periods for FHA Loans.

Seller Seasoning simply means how long the current owner has owned the property (as recorded on Title Records). Seller seasoning is also called Owner seasoning. The contract date must be after the date of acquisition for the seller, a redated contract is not allowable.

This is in complete alignment with the HUD guidelines for FHA Loans. The other lenders that have added restrictions are reducing the eligibility for Homebuyers to use FHA Loans to purchase homes from investors who may have purchased the home at a foreclosure auction, or direct from a bank. This opens the door for more homes to be eligible for safe, secure, and sound FHA financing. Many of these homes have been completely rehabilitated, making them a more desirable home to buy: they are Turn key homes.

Our FHA Rules can help you avoid the issue of FHA seller seasoning, FHA Flip Rules, and big bank rules that restrict access to quality FHA Loans.

There are some guidelines for FHA Flips under 90 days that will require some attention. If the home increased in price more than 20% from the sellers acquisition cost, the increase in price will need to be justified with renovation records, the sale must be arms-length (No Idendity of Interest between buyer and seller), multiple flipping within previous 12 months is a red flag, no assignment of contracts, property inspection may be required, and buyer's agent cannot be the seller of the home.
