I want to take out equity in my home. I own it outright and have no mortgage. In march of 2011 I had to short sale my home due to

due to my wife contracting lyme's disease and she had to quit her job. This was totally out of the blue and we had no way to know this would happen. I would like to take this money out to pay off debt, do home improvements etc. I hear the standard now is a three year wait. I will have two years behind me in march. Can anybody help or provide any advice. by baldsi_746_862 from Queen Creek, Arizona. Jan 30th 2013 Reply

Good Morning! You would need a very detailed hardship letter of explanation which we can discuss to determine what options would be available. We have In House Underwriting as a Direct Lender, so I could pass the information on to have it reviewed before proceeding too far along. I'm happy to help as I am able to originate loans in all 50 States. Thank you and good luck!

Regardless of what you read, you pretty much need to wait a minimum of three-years beyond the date your previous home transferred hands. You dont mention how much you are looking for, but you might find success with a local credit union if the amount is small compared to what the home is worth. Good luck

Good Morning! Usually one needs two years with VA, three years for FHA, and 5 years for conventional loans. Having said that....I have done a refinance cash-out loan with a conventional loan when the borrower had a VERY compelling, documented, detailed hardship letter of explanation which you and I will need to discuss to determine what options would be available. We have In House Underwriting as a Direct Lender, so I will talk with him and make sure to have everything on the right path before we would get too far into the process. I am located in Metro Phoenix and happy to help you. I am a Mortgage Banker in metro Phoenix, AZ. I lend in both Arizona and California NOT Colorado but Pinnacle Capital Mortgage Corporation does have offices in Colorado and they will be pleased to help you.. If you or someone you know is looking for financing options, please feel free to contact me or pass along my information. 623-340-0934 Korene Clopine-Seaman NMLS # 218520 KLCSLoanTeam.com We are Direct Lenders, WE CLOSE LOANS!

There are many options as mentioned if you have a VA or FHA loan that might work. Contact a local lender and see if they can help. If not, then contact a local bank or C.U. and see about just getting a HELOC. They are not underwritten per conforming guidelines and a local portfolio lender would help you. If there is a Washington Federal C.U. near you they can help but definitely contact a Local Lender 1st.
