  Which Government Backed Home Loan Is Best Suited For Purchasing My New Home? If you want a loan with a No Money Down Option then you must be a veteran or you must purchase a home in a HUD Approved Area for Rural Housing. The VA and USDA Loan are the only type loans that offer the No Down Payment Option for buying a home. The FHA loan is the most popular type loan at this time because the down payment requirement is only 3.5% compared to the Conventional Loans which require 5% down. Both require the added cost of Mortgage Insurance any time less than 20% down is used. The VA and USDA Loans do not require mortgage Insurance but have a funding fee that is financed into the loan. The USDA funding fee is currently 3.5% but expected to rise with the growing number of defaults. The VA fundin... 07/25/2011

A good friend of mine has been a International Travel Agent for over 20 years; she works for a very busy travel company that manages the international travel itineraries for other large companies. Over the years she has developed a bond with a number of people and has helped them over and beyond the call of duty. These are tasks unrelated to her job; but she has the knowledge and experience to assist them, so she does, making their day a little easier. Mind you these are tasks she is not required to do; gets no extra pay for and has to do on her own time. It's against company policy to do them while clients are waiting to speak to an agent; which is the case 90% of the time. It causes her concern when she does go the extra mile for someone who makes a special request without saying as m... 02/09/2011

I have been experiencing the Banks getting somewhat tougher to deal with in regards to negotiating shortsales, especially Bank of America.  In order to get things done, I have had the negotiator insist on reducing commission to 4% as well as having the seller come to the table with $5000 dollars, pushing for $10,000, but accepting $5,000.  Also time on the file to be even looked at is extremely long.  Every time I called the seller, she was so irate about Bank of America, often driven to tears.  She felt disrespected by Bank of America and of had quite a few descriptive words to say about them.  The sale however was completed, and everyone breathed a real sigh of relief.GTE has been easier to deal with however. One of my sellers told me from the beginning that the bank could forget abou... 11/06/2009

I have recently been asked about Veteran's assuming  VA Mortgages in Florida. An assumable mortgage loan is one that allows a new home buyer to take over the obligation of the seller's loan with no change in loan terms. This is generally true of loans without Due-On-Sale Clauses. Due on Sale cause would prohibit an assumption of the mortgage because the note is due upon selling the property.There is two ways to assume a VA loan. First, the new buyer is a qualified Veteran who "Substitutes" their eligibility for the eligibility of the seller. In addition, the new buyer must be able to qualify through the current VA loan parameters.  This is the safest way for a seller to allow their loan to be assumed because the new buyer is responsible for the note. You will be released from the promis... 08/24/2009

I love helping sellers that need to sell quickly.  They are just so excited to move past the stress of being behind in payments.  I try to help make a bad situation a better one.  Working full time as a shortsale specialist is a must, as often times I have to be on the phone with a bank several times in just one day in order to work any last minute things that may pop up right before the home closes.  I love to work with Anchor Title on Sheldon Road for all my listings.  Tammy is an indispensable member of my team.  When a home is sold via shortsale, the seller is able to avoid a completed foreclosure, which is the worst thing on a person's credit.  The Buyer gets a great price on a great home and gets to start a new exciting chapter in their life.  The Seller also gets the opportunity ... 07/20/2009
