Financing update for Lodi, Galt and Stockton

By
Real Estate Agent with Century 21 M&M

 

Attention all buyers, sellers and agents in the greater Lodi, Galt and Stockton communities.

100% financing is no longer available on conventional loans. Loan to value can't exceed 92%. 8% is the new minimum requirement. Investment properties are requiring 20% down, in a declining market. Buyers, if you are involved in a transaction that doesn't meet these requirements, contact your lender ASAP. Sellers, review financing terms of you contract. Agents, if you have any escrows exceeding the 92% LTV, contact the lender and make sure your clients will not be affected.

Good news from FHA. FHA is still at 3% and has not been impacted by this change.

Great news.  I just opened a FHA escrow and I haven't done an FHA in four years, it is nice to have a buyer who could get one and the excitement for him is fun for me.
