Thanks for the #loanlady name. I love it :)

Thanks for starting this thread Wendi. I get several RDP clients that call me with lending questions. I hope they will find this thread helpful and use it to ask questions when they are getting ready to purchase or refi.

Hi Wendi

They are taking 2 weeks in AZ, however I just ordered one last week and had it back in 3 days, go figure. I quote all my clients two weeks, if we get in back sooner, that is a bonus.

CA about a week.

Thank you,

We recently rolled out our OTC Construction Loan program. I'm currently in the middle of doing my own loan with this program and happy to say it has been pretty smooth thus far. Hoping to close 1st week of December.

UP to 95% LTV, Primary and second home available, Qualify once, up to 12 months build, low fees, modify down to the market interest rate at time of close. You can include lot and build in one loan. If you own the lot that can be used towards your equity to reduce your loan to value.

I'm licensed in AZ and CA. Call me today (909) 455-6271

All these make sense except the "don't join a fitness club" thing. Can you elaborate on why this is a no-no(outside of adding a new revolving acct)?

Zig I think adding debt will change your qualifying ratio's and might throw you out of qualifying.

Hey Ziggy, you don't want to add any debt to your ratio's. But yeah most of the gyms now deduct from your bank account. So yeah that one is useless in my opinion.

Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac increase conforming loan limit to $548,250

Most areas: The Federal Housing Finance Agency announced on November 24, 2020, that the new baseline conforming loan limit for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac mortgages in 2021 will be $548,250 for one-unit properties in most areas in the U.S. This is a 7.5% increase from 2020’s limit of $510,400 and marks the fifth consecutive year of increases from the FHFA.

High-cost areas: The new loan limits for one-unit properties in FHFA-designated high-cost areas will range from $548,251 to $822,375. The baseline loan limit for Alaska, Hawaii, Guam, and the U.S. Virgin Islands will be $822,375 for one-unit properties

These increases are significant for homebuyers and homeowners! These higher loan limits keep homebuyers in step with the rising housing market. With conforming loans, homebuyers can purchase homes with lower down payments and more competitive rates! Homeowners can access more equity in their home by allowing them to borrow up to the increased conforming loan limit.

This is great news! Call me with any questions you may have.

Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. We were off the grid in Glamis and it was the most crowded I've ever seen. No busy weekends for this girl again.

Several things need to be considered in a quote. So when you have time give me a call (909) 455-6271. It depends on LTV, FICO, loan amount etc.

Reminder: New Loan Limits go into effect 1/1/21 HAPPY NEW YEAR
Conventional:

The Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) has announced the maximum conforming loan limits for mortgages to be acquired by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac in 2021. In most of the U.S., the 2021 maximum baseline conforming loan limit for one-unit properties will be $548,250, an increase from $510,400 in 2020.



For high-cost areas in which 115 percent of the local median home value exceeds the baseline conforming loan limit, the maximum loan limit will be higher than the baseline loan limit. The new ceiling loan limit for one-unit properties in most high-cost areas will be $822,375 — or 150 percent of $548,250.



As a result of generally rising home values, the increase in the baseline loan limit, and the increase in the ceiling loan limit, the maximum conforming loan limit will be higher in 2021 in all but 18 counties or county equivalents in the U.S. The following charts contain the general loan limits and High-Cost Area loan limits for 2021:
