Lenders and the California Wildfires **UPDATED**

By
Mortgage and Lending with Kris Krajecki - FOX VALLEY MORTGAGE - Huntley, IL

The State of California has declared the counties of Los Angeles, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Diego and Orange disaster areas due to the wildfires in Southern California. Lenders usually requires a 442 (completed by the original appraiser) on all transactions located in counties that are declared disaster areas. It is due to the size of the effected area and the concentration of the fires, that most lenders will not require a 442 on all properties. Instead, the requirement for the 442 will be based on the property Zip Code.

If property's zip code is in the table below, a 442 is required for Provident Funding. Other lenders will have thier tables very soon I'm sure! Also it is important to remember that the situation in Southern California is constantly changing and additional zip codes may need to be added to the lists.

This policy is designed to limit its impact to only those properties located near the fires.

 The following is a list of zip codes (by County) where a 442 is required:

Just received email from several wholesale lenders in regards to this new requirement.  Sounds like a smart move on the lenders end.

In the mean time my thoughts and prayers are with the home owners who have lost every thing (personal) they own.

What a catastrophe.  I'd rather live with our hurricanes and tornadoes in Florida than to see my house burn...  Poor people...
