Appraisal waiver only for HARP loans?

Appraisal Waiver is approved or denied as part of the Desktop Underwriter Automated system.. All files have to be first run through DU.. if it's approved and the results allow for an appraisal waiver, then you're ok.. if your file has to be manually underwritten, then more than likely they will require an appraisal...I'm a Broker here in Scottsdale AZ and I only lend in Arizona.

I'm not really sure why they would only do a manual underwrite.. Unless it's just their policy for loans they are servicing... I would try using a broker, rather than your current loan servicer.. you will know within an hour if your loan is a approved through DU and if the appraisal will be waived..

HARP 2.0 Refi Plus, HARP DU Refi Plus, and DU Refi Plus are one in the same. DU is just an abbreviation for Desktop Underwriter which is Fannie's computer systerm for detemining borrower eligibility. No one really knows what the criteria is for an appraisal waiver. It's Fannie's best kept secret and I doubt very many, if any, know how it works. It is determined by some, supposed, complex computer algorithm that takes into account every aspect of your loan input into Fannie's Desktop Originator program. LTV, DTI, FICO score, employment history, monthly income, monthly debt, cash reserves, where you live, and a host of other factors can all have a bearing on getting a waiver. Quite honestly, all those who get a HARP 2 loan should be forever grateful to the U. S. government for giving them exceptional mortgage relief regardless of whether or not an appraisal waiver is granted. Paying $400 to $500 for an appraisal is miniscule conpared to the $200 to $1,100 monthly savings with this amazing loan program. All homeowners who must pay for an appraisal to get a HARP 2 loan will easily recoup the cost of it in 2 months--if not one. Give me a call 16/7, or email me your phone number so I can call you, and I'll be happy to discuss HARP 2 loan guidelines with you.
