Richard Balles Tells You What You Need To Know About Home Loan Qualification

By:




Richard Balles suggests, before you begin looking for a new home, a second home, or an investment property, it is always a good idea to get pre-qualified by your lender (Note: this is different than being pre-approved). At A-K Financial, Richard Balles assist you with this process.

Prequalification:
1. Saves you time you dont spend your time looking at homes that are out of your price range.
2. Gives you an advantage in the marketplace many sellers will only allow their property to be shown to pre-qualified buyers.

Your Credit Score - Value Rating - Paper Rating
720 and up - Superior Rating - A Paper
680 to 720 - Excellent Rating - A to B Paper
640 to 680 - Very Good Rating - B Paper
580 to 640 - Good Rating - Subprime
550 to 580 - Fair Rating - Subprime C
550 and below - Imperfect Rating - C Paper

Here Richard Balles is giving the list for "A" paper (note: different guidelines apply to "B and C" credit)
Conforming loan amount of up to $417,000 1st mortgage loan amount only (can also have a 2nd mortgage)
Can be owner or non-owner occupied
If owner occupied, must have 2 months PITI* reserves (Principal, Interest, Taxes, Insurance). This money can be gifted from a friend or relative, but is best if it can be shown as self-saved (seasoned).
If non-owner occupied, must have 6 months PITI* reserves. This money cannot be gifted!
Non-conforming loan amount of $417,000
Can be owner or non-owner occupied
If owner occupied, must have 4 months PITI* reserves (Principal, Interest, Taxes, Insurance). This money can be gifted from a friend or relative, but is best if it can be shown as self-saved (seasoned).
