An approved mortgage with a credit rating below 620?

Monday, January 11th, 2010

Is that a legitimate offer.
A major lender is very nervous to give you an FHA mortgage ( faxing over forms) despite a credit rating below the 620,

There are no up front fees except an appraisal fee.

What is the catch?
Lend America
the loan would include an extra
$12,000 in fees
There is only an upfront appraisal fee
BUT there are over $12,000 in Closing cost

Is the GFA estimate accurate? Some items are listed in the GFA and then relisted in the estimate from the title company (do I need to pay twice?)

If it’s not listed, do i need to pay those fees? If there are items not listed, please let me know so I can question my lender (Wachovia) if I am responsible for them.

Thanks
Thanks you for your help

When a house enters escrow on an FHA 1st time Pre-qualified Home Buyers loan, can the seller cancel if…?

Saturday, June 13th, 2009

The FHA Appraiser requires a gas water heater to be re-installed 3 feet off the ground?
We bid
We won
Send in deposit, down, & fees to title co.
Paid for home inspection
Received a closing date from Bank
Have 5.6% rate locked in for 45 days
Now the agents are playing cat & mouse

Can we end up losing this house if the seller (bank owned) doesn’t want to spend the money on these repair REQUIREMENTS? They knew we were first time FHA home buyers when we bid & submitted the bank loan approval letter…
THEY ACCEPTED. Can they opt out & re-list house?

The suspense is killing us. Who should we start calling? This agents don’t seem to be doing their jobs & the mortgage agent seems far too busy to get the paperwork faxed out.

Is there something we should know about buying a bank owned house that the agents aren’t telling us? This is in California.

Also paid appraisal fee directly to huge name bank prior to paying for home inspection & the water heater issues were of a different nature on the report.
WE don't want anything repaired.
The property was bought in "as -is: condition.
It's the FHA people who won't release the $$$ until this repair is completed. They won't allow us (the buyers) to do the repairs… the agents seem clueless… as are we.
FREE to WALK someone has answered???
Nothing is FREE
00 Transaction fee
0 FHA appraisal fee
0 Home inspection fee

,890.00 non-refundable
AGENTS waiting for one another to FAX contracts & blah blah blah.
We also paid additional 00 deposit. We can get that back! The agents are driving us insane. NO paperwork…it's all on the internet! Only the bank has paperwork & they are holding it until reapirs are done by seller (another bank).
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Hell yeah…we're CONFUSED! The agents have done that by passing the buck to one another & NEVER giving solid answers to the buyers from the gate!
Confused. Very confused. RICO?

Appraisal Help with a FHA Loan on a New Mortgage?

Saturday, June 13th, 2009

I applied for a FHA home loan on 2/4/08 with Bank of America, they denied me because I had a medical collection on my report for 3, and my score was a 610. I have had the same job for 7 years. Anyways, it took them untill 2/11/08 to tell me no, but they ordered an FHA Appraisal on the home I am buying on 2/09/08, and it was Appraised on 2/10/08. The home I am buying is 15k below the appraised value and has no issues that need to be adressed acording to the FHA Appraiser. I went to a Mortgage Broker today and got approved for a Mortgage with them no problem. My officer said he was going to call Bank of America and see if they will let us have the appraisal they did on the home. I did not pay anything up front for the appraisal, it was going to be rolled into my closing. My excellent faith estimate for the loan with the new mortgage company rolled in a appraisal fee into closing also, but my broker said I may have to pay Bank of America to release that appraisal. What is yalls opinion?
