New Loan Program for First-Time Homebuyers!
As many of you know, the mortgage market has been going through some recent craziness and the availability of low-money down programs has shrunk tremendously. While FHA is still a very viable option for many, I recently learned of a new conventional product that is worth considering. Flagstar Bank is offering a loan where buyers need only put down 5% for a Conventional Fannie Mae 30 year fix loan in the DC Area. There are some restrictions.
*Must be First time Homebuyer
*Homebuyer education is required
*Two months reserves required
*Max Seller Contribution of 3% regardless of program description
*Min FICO of 680
*One Unit property only
*Interest Only will not be allowed
*No Condos

Let’s get started on your search for a new home today!
