I'm interested in applying for an FHA loan to buy a home. Are my student loans considered when applying for an FHA loan if I'm enrolled in college half-time in a degree program? My understanding is that if I'm enrolled at least half-time in a degree program that my student loans are in an "in school deferment status" until I've completed the program and thus would not be considered when figuring my monthly payments (debts). Is this true?
Hi Dana,That is correct. You're student loans need to be deferred 12 months from the date you close on the home so the payment does not have to be counted as a liability.Sincerely,Colby NealBranch ManagerAffiliated Bank MortgageNMLS # 815067 | Member FDIC(866) 282-2956 x 6104 | Office(800) 488-6185...

Sooner is definitely better than latter, but the owner is my brother he is willing to wait for several reason.The two most important being it is the home we was raised in and we would like to keep it in our family and also I am already paying all up keep, insurances, and taxes on property, as well as mortgage payments.. The Deed filed at the tax office is already in my wife's name and has been for the past 12-15 months. We was hoping at one point to be able to do a refinance with BOA but during the seasoning period on the Deed transfer BOA sold the loan to another company... Would you recommend working with a company to help rebuild or build up my credit? Thanks PS I also have a very qualified Co-Signer if that will make a difference?

Hi Keith - The foreclosure must be 3 years out from the date HUD paid the lender. As long as you have re-established credit, a credit score of a 620 or higher; and no major collections, bankruptcy, judgments, then you should be in good shape to move forward. - Colby Neal

Don't lenders fees have to be listed on a GFE??
Ask for a 'fees worksheet'. The GFE compiles fees from the bank, escrow, title, etc. Its confusing to say the least. In any event, our branch will guarantee the lowest priced mortgage.

could i get an ARM with bad credit (600) if down payment is large
FHA ARM, Possibly. Conventional is not possible. You'll need minimal payment shock (from rent to mortgage payment) 2 years on the same job, and 4 months of reserves.

Is there a way I can avoid paying the closing costs
YES. Your lender and realtor will structure the purchase agreement contract with an estimated 3-4% in seller paid closing costs. This will prevent you from having to bring cash above the down payment to closing. www.imortgagelending.com, Colby@imortgagelending.com

Are there regulations that govern the rate or cost of PMI on conventional loans?
