FHASecure is a temporary lending program - which expires in late 2008 - announced by President Bush on August 31, 2007, and released to FHA-approved lenders on September 4th. Qualified homeowners seeking payment relief from their ARM may be able to use FHASecure to refinance their loan into a more stable, fixed-rate program, even if they are already delinquent on payments. This program is estimated to rescue somewhere between 80,000 and 220,000 ARMs borrowers.

The FHASecure initiative will utilize existing FHA guidelines. Eligible homeowners will be required to pay a mortgage insurance premium and, like all FHA loans, FHASecure will not include pre-payment penalties or "teaser rates."

A number of important criteria must be met in order to be considered for the FHASecure loans . If you want more information on the qualifications just email me and I will be glad to send it to you with no obligation.
