Fannie Mae HomePath closing costs increased to 3.5%

St Paul, MN: Fannie Mae has announced they are increasing allowed seller paid closing costs to 3.50%.

This is an increase over the current 3% in allowed seller paid closing costs to home buyers purchasing a Fannie Mae HomePath foreclosed home, and is FOR A LIMITED TIME ONLY.  The special offer goes back to 3.00% soon, so be aware and careful if including 3.5% Fannie Mae paid closing costs in any transaction.

Purchase agreements must be written on or after April 11, 2011 and the transaction must close on or before June 30, 2011. A short window of opportunity, but an opportunity nonetheless.

Joseph - The incentive is nice.  If the property is in good condtion, I've had good success using a 95% LTV with LPMI.  You'll leave 0.5% of the incentive on the table,but the cost is significantly less and the buyer ends up with a much better rate.  Borrowers must have solid credit history/credit score.
