Homeowners must qualify for
ALL OF THE FOLLOWING
Qualifying Guidelines:
- No prior bankruptcies and/or foreclosures allowed.
- Short Payoff (Short Sale) must serve as Payment-in-Full.
- If the existing Short Sale Loan is an FHA Insured Loan, borrower is ineligible for this program.
- Borrowers may not short sell "to take advantage of declining market conditions and purchase at a reduced price, a similar or superior property within a reasonable commuting distance"... so the following circumstances may allow borrowers to qualify for new financing:
.
- Job relocation not within a reasonable commuting distance.
- Divorce with court ordered sale, resulting in a Short Sale.
- Property condemnation, change in family size,
or sale due to a medical condition.
- "Inferior" home purchase with lower payment and home size.
Since you'd have to rent an apartment after short selling,
why not own a condo or smaller home instead?
- No Mortgage or Installment Loan Lates in last 12 months, nor through the new home purchase process
- New home purchase must be "inferior" to the home being short sold. No "trade ups" allowed under this program.
- Minimum 640 FICO Credit Score throughout the Short Sell
and New Home purchase process
.
