Hi, the guideline changed and allows for max LTV(95%) financing with 4 yrs after a short sale. Of course you must meet all the other guidelines as well, income, debt ratios, employment, etc....good luck!!!

I work with a direct lender that is privately funded that will not look at your past credit history. I t does not matter how long ago you had the short sale. This program will offer no pre payment penalty for a 30 year fixed loan. This loan will lend up to 95% of purchase price. This program has a heavy emphasis on your ability to afford the mortgage. income must be proved and documented in order to qualify. The interest rates on this mortgage will be very low regardless of past credit.I can get a pre approval for you in 3 to 7 days after application is submitted. Please contact me Gordon N Dempsey at 540 354 9690
