To qualify for a fixed rate mortgage, applicants must meet specific employment, credit and income criteria, including the following conditions:
- Steady employment history, at least two years history of employment
-
Or evidence supporting enrollment in school or the military during the most recent two full years
- Consistent or increasing income over the past two years
- Any Chapter 7 bankruptcy on record must be two years old with good credit for the two consecutive following years.
- A Chapter 13 bankruptcy does not disqualify a Borrower from obtaining a
FHA-insured Mortgage, if at the time of case number assignment at least
12 months of the pay-out period under the bankruptcy has elapsed.
The Mortgagee must determine that during this time, the Borrower’s
payment performance has been satisfactory and all required payments
have been made on time; and the Borrower has received written
permission from bankruptcy court to enter into the mortgage transaction - A Borrower is generally not eligible for a new FHA-insured Mortgage
if the Borrower had a foreclosure or a DIL of foreclosure in the
three-year period prior to the date of case number assignment.
This three-year period begins on the date of the DIL or the date that
the Borrower transferred ownership of the Property to the foreclosing
Entity/designee.
Will I have to pay for Private Mortgage Insurance?
Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI) provides your lender with a way to recoup its investment if you are unable to repay your loan. PMI is usually required when the mortgage amount is higher than 80% of the home’s value. That means that if you buy a home with a down payment of less than 20%, you will probably have to pay for PMI.
Should I choose a fixed-rate or adjustable-rate loan?
Most mortgage loans have either a fixed interest rate or an adjustable interest rate. With a fixed-rate mortgage, the interest rate never changes and your payments remain stable throughout the life of your loan. With an adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM), the interest rate changes at regular intervals usually once every year based on a formula that uses a market index.
A fixed rate is usually best if you plan to stay in your home for the long term and are buying at a time when rates are relatively low. An ARM is usually best if you plan to move before the rate adjustments begin, or if you are buying when rates are relatively high.
Should I lock my rate?
Locking your interest rate means your lender guarantees the rate on your loan even if market rates change before closing. Your Loan Estimate may show a rate that has been “locked” or a rate that is “floating,” which means it can go up or down. Mortgage Interest rates change daily,sometimes hourly. A rate lock sets your interest rate for a period of time. Rate locks are typically available for 30, 45, or 60 days, and sometimes longer.
