fha streamline refinance: Client Wrote Congress ABOUT FHA Streamline Rules
- 05/06/13 06:22 AM
I’ve never accepted a guest post on our site – however, I received a letter from a borrower who is frustrated by the FHA Streamline Refinance System. The Borrower (who lives in NC) has a FHA loan, and wants to take advantage of the low FHA Mortgage Rates – however, her loan was endorsed 11 days after the deadline of June 1, 2009. Because of those 11 days, she can’t really justify a refinance, the FHA PMI rates are just too high for it to make sense! (Read More about the FHA PMI Endorsement date of June 1, 2009) Here is … (0 comments)

FHA Mortgage Loans are generally only available to folks who are going to live in the property – the EXCEPTION is if you already own the home, and you want to refinance it. If you purchased a home with a FHA mortgage, then moved out, and are renting it (so now it’s Investment property) you might be eligible for a Streamline Refinance.

Obviously, the benefit of the FHA Streamline is greater for folks who purchased the home, and have a loan that was endorsed by FHA prior to June 1, … (3 comments)
fha streamline refinance: What Does Endorsed By May 31, 2009 – FHA Streamline Refinance
- 04/25/12 12:36 AM
There’s a new FHA Streamline Refinance program coming on June 11, 2012 and lots of people are interested in it! It has a new “tier” for the FHA PMI rates – that is much lower than the current rates!

In the Announcement for the New Streamline FHA Refinance Program, it states that the only people who qualify are people with “Mortgages that were ENDORSED By FHA Prior … (5 comments)
fha streamline refinance: FHA PMI Changes in April and June
- 04/10/12 02:48 AM
HUD (and Congress, and FHFA) is putting pressure on FHA to be more solvent, and less of a looming Risk on the Economy. Because of this, FHA Underwriting Guidelines, have gotten tighter, they've instituted changes in downpayment requirements for those who are higher risk... and they've continually changed what they charge for PMI.
