WELCOME TO THE NEW FHA LOAN. VIRGINIA REAL ESTATE OPPORTUNITY FOR HOME BUYERS.
HAVING TROUBLE GETTING A CONVENTIONAL HOME LOAN APPROVED? You bet! Is the home you wish to buy in a "declining market"? What's a "declining market"? What's the solution? FHA loan limits up to $729,750 for AQUIA HARBOR, a waterfront community in Stafford County, VA. All of Stafford County is covered by the new FHA loan limit of $729,750. AND the down payment is 3%, AND you may qualify for down payment assistance.
DECLINING MARKET. Mortgage companies are smart. While home prices in the Virginia real estate market have come down significantly, conventional mortgages have become harder and harder for buyers to get approved. 5% has become 10% and 10% has become 20%. In designated "declining market" areas, areas where prices have declined, underwriting and appraisal guidelines are much more difficult than in the past 5 years. Mortgage companies want to protect themselves from the risk of making loans on homes whereby the market value is likely to decline. They protect themselves by limiting the amount of money they will lend on properties where there security (the property) will decline in value.
What is the solution?
YES! 3% Down loans are available with FHA Financing. BUT, THAT'S NOT ALL. If you qualify, you may be able to obtain DOWN PAYMENT ASSISTANCE from the Down Payment Assistance programs offered by the Nehemiah Program. Wait! There's more. With FHA Financing, you may receive up to 6% closing cost assistance from the Seller. Of course, the seller must be willing to make this contribution. In today's real estate market, our buyers agents are negotiating contracts with helpful closing cost contributions to help our buyers with costly settlement costs.
