NASA and NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNIONS-100% financing are back

Don't call it a Comeback. But NASA and Navy Federal Credit Unions are both offering their members 100% financing. Yes you are reading this right. And no you are not being hypotized. At least I don't think so. Okay anyway both NASA Federal Credit Union and Navy Federal Credit Union are offering members mortgages without requiring any down payment or mortgage insurance. REALLY? NO REALLY. 

 

 

 

 
 
The credit union,which has a nationwide field of membership based on SEGs,also limits the no down payment loans to real estate markets in the credit union’s closest region,the Washington, D.C.,suburbs,where NASA believes it best knows the market and where the credit union is confident housing prices have hit bottom. For example Columbia Heights Washington DC Real Estate Market is super HOT! HOT! HOT! Read this blog Columbia Heights DC Real Estate Market is hot.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Navy Federal Credit Union offers a program for home buyers called the Homebuyers Choice to all its members and doesn’t underwrite the no money down loans differently than other mortgages,according to the housing finance executives with the nation’s largest credit union. Katie Miller,vice president for mortgage products said "We underwrite all of our loans so our members can succeed with the loan,”. No money down loans are extremely popular with members who might not be able to come up the typical $20,000 down payment for a conventional mortgage from another lender.The Navy Federal Credit Union also makes $2,500 available to members to help with closing costs and the loans allow up to 6% of the purchase price to come from the seller.
 

 

 

Is it a good idea to offer this product? With the pent up demand for "Homes for sales in Washington DC" and "DC home values" rising which should hopefully make some DC Homeowners want to take advantage of this booming Real Estate Market by putting their house up for sale,I think it is a good idea to offer this product. 100% financing product such as the "Navy Federal Credit Union Homebuyers Choice" would help first time home buyers who are willing to buy a house but just can't afford the $20,000 down or even 3.5% down payment that a FHA Loan requires. First time home buyers are on a very tight budget so this program will help them save around $2,000 or even more that they can use to either paint the house,buy new furniture,get a new door or do other minor repairs around the house.

Lanre,  I believe now that appraisal management is handled differently offering 100% financing in the right areas is a good idea.  The home purchases are still subject to appraisal.
