Comments on: FHA Secure http://loanworkout.org/2007/08/fha-secure/ Loan Modification & Home Loan News Sat, 20 Mar 2010 15:31:56 -0700 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: LJ http://loanworkout.org/2007/08/fha-secure/#comment-6392 LJ Tue, 15 Apr 2008 04:16:50 +0000 http://loanworkout.org/2007/08/31/fha-secure/#comment-6392 I am sympathetic toward all the homeowners currently facing high interest rate adjustments, or worse, those already in foreclosure. Being in the "business", I find it amazing that the FHA Secure program allows for homeowners who are currently victims of increasing rates and payments but investors across the board aren't helping by requiring homeowners to have a 580 fico, even being delinquent on the mortgage. It's a catch 22.... you can't get into an FHA Secure loan with an extremely low fico, but an extremely low fico is what happens when you are consistently delinquent on your mortgage. Until HUD refuses to insure loans made by banks with fico score requirements, these poor homeowners who are facing foreclosure won't see much relief. A freeze on rate hikes seems like the best option at this point in time.

This is either due to servicers not willing to part with the primary loan and still carry secondary loans, low appraisals from the FHA approved people, or plain out not qualifying. There's no FREAKING WAY I'm going to pay 6 months of inflated interest to get shut down in the end... with my savings exhausted and face moving out with my tail between my legs because I tried to keep my place that we could afford when we purchased it, in a market where refi was right around the corner. Makes you wonder who's actually getting any help from this system :-/ I qualify for a FHA secure, but I’ve had 2 lates in the last 12 months, my current lender refuses to cash my certified funds I made in december 07 because it sets them up fairly well for my adjustment in feb(hello 90 days till you can stop payment), and I’ve spoken to 2 FHA approved lenders so far that have yet to close a FHA secure loan.

The product is now out there and the guidelines have been made so strict that NO ONE not even FHA is interested in buying/insuring these loans. FHA has made the process for these loans so involved and tight for the lenders that if just 1 "I" is not dotted or one "T" is not crossed the lenders are looking at a re-purchase. Which, from my stand point is not helping the situation at all. I think this is just another way for the government to "appear" to the "general public" as the good guys However, in reality they are only offering false hope and playing on the ignorance that got these people into their current situation in the first place.

If you interpret that has me seeing the glass as empty, then fine. You know why? Because it is. I wrote this post 2 months ago and the FHA Secure is not being offered by lenders. You know why Gretchen? Becuase no one will buy these mortgages on the secondary market. When there is a win/win situation, I will report on it. For now it is no-win for homeowners. Until you know what's really really going on, save your ill informed comments for yourself. Gretchen,

No. 1 of the FHASecure guidelines reads: "A history of on-time payments before the borrower's teaser rates expired and loans reset." It appears to me that you hate President Bush on principle, and that there would never be enough that he could do to satisfy you. For you, every step is a no-win proposition. There's no pleasing an "empty glass" kind of guy. With all due respect, Moe, you didn’t read the Bush’s FHASecure guidelines that apply to the people that you defend below:
