Q: I am looking to buy a house in about two months. My credit scores are 643, 644, and 596. My annual income is 52K. I should have the 3% down payment when I am ready to buy. Will I have trouble getting a loan? Approximately what amount and what interest rate can I expect?

Q: I recently moved in with my fiance, and am trying to sell my home. It's been on the market for 5 months now, and am thinking of just renting it out. But I'd like to refinance. Since the property isn't presently rented, can I refinance as an owner-occupied? My credit score is 800. I owe 108k, and the property is valued at approximately 120-125k.

Q: What is a floating mortgage loan?

Answered 04/03/08 16:29:56 by Mike Warsop,
Loan Originator for Gold Mortgag

A: i think you meant floating rate which means you don't lock it in so if rates go down you can get a better rate also if they go up you will have to take the higher rate

Q: My daughter (22) and boyfriend (27) purchased a house together in January. I don't believe they have any equity in the home. They paid $154k and the boyfriend now wants out of the relationship (may just walk away) which would leave my daughter stranded with the mortgage. What are her options?

Answered 04/03/08 16:29:09 by Mike Warsop,

A: She could refinance in her own name if she will qualify by herself otherwise she may need a cosigner such as yourself so feel free to call me at 913-244-9612. Thanks, Mike

Q: My wife and I recently sold our home out of state and we relocated to the KC area. Both of our credit ratings are 645 and 650. Our annual income is $80k. I checked our credit reports and we have a couple of late payments. We want buy a home at the end of this year. We plan to use the proceeds from the sale of our home to pay-off and pay-down several loans and give us a better income to debt ratio, and raise our scores. In the meantime we will save additional money for the down payment and closing costs on a new home. We believe that we have a sound plan that we have already begun to implement. Can you provide us with any insights that would improve our plan?

Q: Hi, I hope you can help me. I'd like to know if it's possible to buy buy a house or mobile home without a down payment or closing costs. I'm on a fixed income and my credit score is 630, not bad I think considering I went through a bankrupsy, due to my late husbands medical bills in 2003. Thanks for your help.

Answered 04/03/08 16:27:18 by Mike Warsop,

A: You would need a minimum of 3% down but the seller on FHA could do a gift for the 3% and pay the 3% in closing costs---a stick built home would be easier since with manufactured homes on fha loans the foundations, septic, and such have to be at certain standards feel free to call me at 913-244-9612. Thanks, Mike

Q: I have a credit score of 585. What kind of interest rate for a mortgage rate am I looking at for 40 yrs with no money down? I am looking at homes in the 214,000. to 239,000. range.

Answered 04/03/08 16:25:38 by Mike Warsop,
Loan Originator for Gold Mortgag

A: I am sorry Helene but 97% is the best loan possible now and that would be fha on a 30 year term with your credit score and the rate would be around 6.5%

Q: I just got approved for a 199,500 mortgage, 30 yr fix rate. My annual income is 45k and my credit score is 610. Do you think 7 percent interest is to much or should I shop around?

Answered 03/11/08 04:38:44 by Mike Warsop,
Loan Originator for Gold Mortgag

A: I think you could get a rate more near 6 to 6.5%.

Q: My husband and i are wanting to build a new home but the lot will run us about 25,000. Do we buy the lot and get approval for a house all at once and have it financed at once?

Q: We are looking at buying a house for $40,000, that needs about $55,000 worth of fix-ups to complete the inside. My question is can we get a mortgage for the whole $95,000 or just the $40,000

Answered 03/11/08 04:32:48 by Mike Warsop,
Loan Originator for Gold Mortgag

A: This is going to be difficult since most companies will consider the value to be 40k since that is the purchase price you could look into a 203k rehab loan through fha.

Q: My house is in redemption period and i want to know how to get a hold of my morgage holder. i recieved a notice saying i was to contact All First Morgage with no phone # or e-mail address to do so.....Help?

Q: Mom owns a home that has a $20k loan on it. I pay the loan every month. The house needs about $45k worth of work and would then be appraised around $230k. I would like to borrow against the equity in the home to do the repairs. Mom does not have an income other than Soc. security. Would it make sense to transfer ownership to me or could mom get the loan based solely on the equity? If the house were transferred, would it make sense to do it at $1 or would their be capital gains implications? I am trying to help my mother out. Whatever makes sense for her is what I want to do. In this buyers market, we may want to sell her house and use the money to get a deal so that we could reap the benefits of appreciation when the market turns around. Does that make sense?

A: I apologize for not getting back to you sooner but I have been sick since Thursday March 6 but I am now back at it feeling great. Most loans are going to have a seasoning requirement where you must be in title for a certain period of time before doing a cashout transaction now fannie mae doesn't have this guideline. I don't think trying to sell this home if it has 45k worth of work needed in the poor housing market would get you very many acceptable offers. Feel free to call me at 913-244-9612. Thanks, Mike

Q: Hello. I have a couple of questions. I have a six figure income. I have very little debt, however I have poor credit (fico around 625). Is it possible for someone like me to get a mortgage without paying exhorbitant rates? Secondly, there are many builders in my area who have completed or near completed homes sitting empty. Would it make sense to call them to inquire about buying a home near cost? It must be costing them a fortune. Thank you.

A: I apologize for not getting back to you sooner but I have been sick since Thursday March 6 but I am now back at it feeling great. 625 is not the worst score ever and I would like the opportunity to see if we could get you approved for an fha loan. You are right builders are hurting bad with inventory. Feel free to call me at 913-244-9612. Thanks, Mike

Q: My husband and I are seperated, but we maintain a great relationship for our kids. We plan on refinancing the home that I live in, but we both own. Is there anyway that we could just get the home in my name only, if we are both in aggreance?

A: I apologize for not getting back to you sooner but I have been sick since Thursday March 6 but I am now back at it feeling great. If you qualify for the loan in your name only then you could do the loan in your name only but he would have to be on the mortgage and then if you divorce then he can quit claim his rights to the property. Thanks, Mike

Q: I put a contract on a home set to close March 18th. I'm a little concerened because the agent is rushing me to close now. I did'nt realize that the agent showing it was part owner. I told her my financial situation. I feel that it has hurt me financially. I explained that my credit score was 585. I have been at my job 5 years and have an annual income of $25,000. I told her i had $15,000 to put down. She knew i was having trouble getting the financing so she supposedly talked to the mortgage company for me. They approved the loan at 8.75% interest with $15,000 down with a balloon mortgage in 3 years. I am paying for all closings, Apprasial etc... The home appraised for $69,000 and the offer they accepted was for $68,000. They know that i have the funds in my account yet they were threatening me to close today or by next Tuesday even though my contract states March 18th. They told me they had someone else interested in the home.I just do not want to get taken advantage of.

A: Hi Molly, I apologize for not getting back to you sooner but I have been sick since Thursday March 6 but I am now back at it feeling great. Don't let them push you around young lady---you have til the 18th and if you feel pressured and have a problem with the fees and rate then maybe passing and looking at a better loan may be a better option for you. Perhaps we could try to get you approved for an fha loan with a rate in the 6's. Feel free to call me at 913-244-9612. Thanks, Mike

Q: What is the maximum rate that can be charged as closing costs? Is there a cap or certain % ? thank you

Answered 03/05/08 17:54:35 by Mike Warsop,
Loan Originator for Gold Mortgag

A: Hi Lisa, The cap is 7.99% but most people don't come close to that I would consider on about 3% of the loan amount---feel free to call me at 913-244-9612. Thanks, Mike

Q: My discharge was december 2005 and the mortgage co dinged me the 120day late on same month. I wanted to know how fha and fannie or conventional would treat that? I have heard that the 120 day late is seen as a foreclosure. but I show it paid after december for 4 mounths on time. Then sold the house-my scores are in the 680-690's perfect credit since dec 2005 Anonymous 3/03/08 Has your mortgage been on time since discharge? If so then there may be a chance we could look at fha or maybe even conforming depending upon your credit score. Feel free to call me at 913-244-9612.

A: You should call me at 913-244-9612 and I can work up your application and run your application through fannie mae or freddie mac and let you know if it gets me an approval---a 120 won't reflect as a foreclosure in the automated system but if you have to go manual underwrite then it would be considered that way. Look forward to hearing from you. Mike
