I did like to share some details about this program, insurance coverage is divided like;
Quote:
6% for 80.01–85.00% LTV
12% for 85.01–90.00% LTV
16% for 90.01–95.00% LTV
18% for 95.01–97.00% LTV
20% for 97.01–100% LTV


and some of the loan terms available are:

Quote:
5/1, 7/1, and 10/1 ARMs (CMT or LIBOR), terms to 40 years.
Interest-only options:
30 or 40 yr FRM with 10 yr IO period;
35-year FRM with 5-year IO period;
30-year 5/1 ARM (2/2/5 caps, where the initial adjustment cap is 2%, the subsequent adjustment cap is also 2%, while the lifetime cap is 5% above the initial rate.) with 10-year IO period;
Fully amortizing FRM, terms to 40 years.

But 3 and 4 unit properties are not eligible for adjustable rate mortgages.

Thanks
Blue

For some reason, nobody has shared the fact that there are either household income restrictions or property location requirements.

You must have houshold annual pre-tax income of no greater than 100% of the area median income.

OR

Be financing a property located in a designated LOW or MODERATE income census tract.

Read more at fannie mae's website: https://www.efanniemae.com/sf/mortgageproducts/mcm/index.jsp?from=hp#

For area median income limits check here: http://www.huduser.org/datasets/il/il2007_docsys.html

to determine if a specific property is in a low or moderate income census tract enter it here: http://www.ffiec.gov/Geocode/default.aspx

good luck

Hi Cindy,

Welcome to our forums.

There's no need to worry if you have a low score. Nowadays there are several loan programs offered to people having no or low credit scores.

You can try out with our community lenders. The lenders offer loan programs of varied choices to people having different scores and income. If you are interested, send in your request for free mortgage quotes. We shall forward it to our community lenders and then shall contact you if they are able to match their profiles with your loan requirements.

Good luck Smile
