Are 2 points for loan origination fee & loan discount normal on an FHA loan?

Wednesday, February 24th, 2010

I am working with a lender on an FHA loan in Orlando, FL. The rate is 5.59 and the Excellent Faith Estimate states that the lender is asking for !.000 for a loan origination fee and 1.000 for a loan discount. Does this mean my 5.59 percent is now 7.59 percent? Is this allowed on an FHA loan? What is the likelyhood of getting a smaller fee elsewhere? I have a list of approved lenders to use- should I contact more and get other estimates. Help!!! This is my first home buy and I’m not sure what to do. I have 20% to place down from grants and gift funds. The excellent faith estimate still lists mortgage insurance…shouldn’t this be unnecessary with 20% down?

HUD earnest money question?

Saturday, October 17th, 2009

Hi, we recently received our sales contract back, and are ready to go. We had to place ,000 in earnest money in the escrow of our real estate agent. During the walk through, she told us that she cuts a check back to us at closing, so we were plotting on using this money for some repairs and furniture. This is a HUD home, and HUD is paying for 00 in closing costs. Well, I got an email from her today, and she said that the title company will credit us back the earnest money at closing. What does that mean "credit back". Will it go towards the mortgage, or will they give us a check? I heard that it would normally go towards closing costs. Uuuugh, this HUD stuff is getting harder and harder every day to deal with….
