mortgage: FHA Secure Short Refinance Options When You Are Upside Down On Your House
- 09/22/08 03:15 AM
When you owe more than your home is worth and you need an FHA Secure Short Refinance, there are typically three outcomes. Your FHA Secure Short Refinance options will depend upon the negotiations with your current mortgage lender. Short Refinance Write Down - This is the option of preference. The existing lender simply writes off the amount that can be refinanced into the FHA Secure Short Refinance. FHA Secure Refinance with subordinate financing - In many cases the existing lender will accept a secondary lien in the amount that the payoff is short. FHA Secure Short Refinance with a partial unsecured … (6 comments)

mortgage: FHA Loan Impact From The Housing Bill That Just Passed Yesterday!
- 07/24/08 03:42 AM
The House passed the Housing Bill yesterday with the primary goal of providing a safety net to GSEs Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and will have an impact on the FHA Loan. However there are some other important bits to the housing bill. It will allow The FHA to guarantee up to $300,000,000 (that's 3 hundred billion) for homeowners in financial straights to refinance their mortgage into the FHA Secure Short Refinance Loan. In most instances the current lender would have to take a short payoff to allow for the FHA Short Refinance. In other cases the current lender would take a … (9 comments)

mortgage: So What Exactly Is An FHA Secure Short Refinance?
- 07/11/08 02:53 AM
Hi I'm Paul Dunn, Tucson's #1 FHA Mortgage Loan Originator and I am constantly getting the question "What is an FHA Secure short refinance". A Short Refinance is a transaction where the current lender forgives debt in order to complete the transaction. Here's a real life example: (very simplified) Let's say you bought your home at a market peak for $450,000 and you still owe $425,000. Since the time you bought your home, the market values have been dropping steadily and a similar home in your neighborhood just sold for $350,000. You bought your home on an adjustable rate mortgage that is getting … (4 comments)

mortgage: FHA Mortgage Loans Get Updated Mortgage Insurance Premiums
- 07/10/08 08:00 AM
This just in... FHA Mortgage Insurance Premiums are going to CHANGE effective July 14, 2008. The change is designed to shift the burden of the FHA Mortgage Insurance costs to the higher risk borrowers. Basically, borrower characteristics showing the highest instance of default will pay higher premiums and vice-versa. FHA Mortgage Loans where the borrower has a 680+ score will actually pay a little less for the up front mortgage insurance premium. I'll post a chart once I have it in my hands.

Please read and I urge you to follow the link and submit your opposition to this potential legislation...The reason for this memo, a regulatory call to action, deals with a nearly silently adopted regulation which could very well be the most dangerous restriction ever placed on the mortgage industry. It literally threatens to eliminate mortgage brokers almost overnight. We have to act now to stop it, because the commentary period on the proposed regulation ends this Wednesday.
