For realtors that need a 90% LTV Stated Income/Stated Asset or Stated Income/Verified Asset Loans, their is only one Mortgage Insurance company left that will issue a MI Certificate.  That company is MGIC.  That being said, they will only write it if the borrower is Self Employed, owns the business/brokerage and if the property is not in a declining market.  I ran into this in late April. UG cancelled theirs effective May 1.  If anyone you know has a deal in the works and its a SISA or SIVA, be sure your Loan Officer knows the new rules.

Lorraine - have your Loan Officer try Crescent Mortgage.  Rates are nose bleed, but they can get it done.
