Re: Finally!!! Got Conditions!!!

Thank you!!!!! I'm so excited!!! 

 

All conditions have been met as of this point right now!!

 

Upmyscore, I am going through First Mortgage Corporation. They actually go down to a score of 500, but if you can't pass through desktop underwriting with an Approve status, underwriting through them can be difficult.

 

We were going to go through First Guarantee Mortgage but the lender said that there conditions are much more extensive and they require lots of documentation and letters of explanation. First Mortgage took a long time for UW, 18 days, but as you can see, conditions are a breeze.

Re: Finally!!! Got Conditions!!!

Nice.  All sounds real nice.  Are you using the 1/2 percent down program through them?  If so, how much did you have to bring to closing?


Starting Score: 722
Current Score: Now 687 what the hockey sticks...from a 784 (Aug 12 EX 751 EQ Fico)

If your outGo is more than your INcome than your UpKeep will become your downFALL.

No, unfortunately we don't qualify for any down payment assistance, however, we only need that 3.5% required by FHA!!

I knew you were using FGMC when the budget worksheet was one of your conditions.  lol  I used them as well.  They will call and verify a lot of your documentation via phone (just before closing) such as employment, and alternate credit accts. to make sure they are still in good standing.   Congrats to you!  FGMC is a breath of fresh air these days when many  lenders are so strict.  Wells Fargo and BOA claim to work similar to FGMC, but I haven't ran across anyone yet who has closed a loan with the lower scores that they claim they accept.

Re: Finally!!! Got Conditions!!!

Good to see you Mocha!!

 

We actually aren't going through FGMC but First Mortgage Corp. I originally thought they were one in the same, but they are different. FMC is out of California.

 

From what I understand, they have the processors verify everything and the office got the call yesterday for employment verification!!  They even allow the broker to verify funds at the end, so their UW don't need to see it again.  I think we got lucky because we passed Total UW with flying colors and no conditions at all. I think that really helped our situation a lot.

 

Now we just need to get the builder to hurry up. We are going to order the appraisal now, but we are hoping they will go out to appraise around the 30th as that is when they are supposed to be done with preliminary construction. LO said at the minimum, we want carpets and appliances in. She said if they don't, we will have to pay to have a reinspect, so we are hoping to get it all done quickly!!!  We are scheduled to close May 10th, only 22 days!!! Whoo Hoo!!
