With the mortgage crisis at hand and properties losing value , I wanted to take advantage of a lower interest rate, but due to the A6 law and the 80% LTV Law, I cannot refi to a lower interest rate. My house appraisal came back lower which means that I would need to go to 90% LTV, but since my house is in Texas I cannot refi unless I bring plenty of cash to the table.

Does anyone know if Texas is going to relax or modify the 80% LTV rule and make it higher like all the other states have it. Texas is the only state with the A6 and 80% LTV law. So, people like me cannot take advantage of lower interest rates.

Thanks

Hi albert,

I'm afraid there hasn't been changes to the Texas A6 refinance law. So, in your situation, you won't be able to refinance and avail lower rates.

Thanks
