freddie mac: Lender Update - LTV Changes are HERE ;) - 06/12/08 04:18 PM

I alluded to this several weeks ago (sorry for my absence I was quite sick for nearly 3 months) and now the time has come. The Mortgage Insurers are broke and have to fix it. This is nationwide regardless of the strength of your market area. According to most Mortgage Insurers the entire nation is in a declining market. What a great time to be a real estate investor!
General Specifications:
As previously notified, after today you will no longer be able to obtain commitments for mortgage insurance on loans with LTVs greater than 97%. Therefore, the following 100% LTV programs … (4 comments)
