Which states can you serve for these residential loans?
I am licensed to originate Conventional, FHA and VA loans in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, Missouri, Tennessee and Florida. Please include the property state when requesting a review.
Can I use a conventional loan for an investment property?
Potentially. Conventional financing may be available for an eligible one- to four-unit investment property. Investment-property loans generally have different down-payment, reserve and pricing requirements than a primary-home loan.
Do I have to be a first-time buyer for HomeReady or Home Possible?
Not always. Both programs can help eligible first-time buyers, but first-time buyer status is not required for every borrower or transaction. Income limits, primary-residence occupancy, property eligibility, credit, debt-to-income ratio and the complete underwriting findings still determine whether a program is available.
Do FHA and VA loans require owner occupancy?
These programs are generally intended for an eligible primary residence and include occupancy requirements. They are not substitutes for a business-purpose DSCR loan on a non-owner-occupied rental property.
What information helps with an initial review?
Share the property state, purchase price or value, intended occupancy, down payment or equity, estimated credit profile, income type and whether you are purchasing or refinancing. Please use the secure application for sensitive personal or financial documents.
