ONE OTHER THING ANON!

Pick an old realtor. If you can. And if they don’t constantly bother you with reminders through text/email/CALLS then get a new one. Someone a little bit mean and scary. An old white woman will be your best advocate. I mean she doesn’t have to be white but literally the scariest most successful ones always fucking are 😒 the nicest ones are always old black guys too so this is also possibly preferable. But this is just in my experience

Also if they recommend some random shitty loan officer you’ve got a keeper. The polished ones usually come from in house. And the house always wins. The weird sketchy ones are the best ones by and far.

Do you recommend buying a house or not… idk if I want one and I don’t want to be stuck in the middle of nowhere but idk if renting is financially irresponsible.

Sometimes. Not always, if you can afford paying rent to a bank, that’s all buying is, and as you pay it off you *can* build equity. Meaning when or if you decide to leave, you can sell it and make a bit of cash because the property has appreciated (maybe you renovated it, maybe not. It can happen regardless usually, especially, in nicer locations. A sure fire way to check this is doing a comparative market analysis and checking the previous listing prices of the property. You’ll know if it’s sure to appreciate baring extenuating circumstances such as a market crash or something. But bear in mind you can also ride out economic slumps and make out like a bandit). No strings attached. Buying is by no means a permanent situation— but!!! By no means is it the only solution.

You need good credit, a stable job for at least six months, and enough money in the bank (OR proof of a stable incoming…income, or family willing to help you out a bit wether it be with the down payment or co-signing on the loan) to get pre approved (and approved) for a loan. If you’re a first time homeowner you have the option to apply for an FHA, which is for newbies! It’s made to guarantee you don’t buy a complete lemon and requires things like a termite and moisture inspection. It has its pros and cons esp in terms of payment. There’s also conventional loans which also have pros and cons; less strings attached. I’ll be using a conventional soon. This is recommended for investors and returning buyers or people who know what they’re doing. My mom is very versed in realty, WAY more than I am, hence my choice in loan option. Lastly there’s cash transactions— no loans. Rare when you’re going to be living in the house, usually reserved for investors/flippers. But by Gd if you can swing this by all means. Sellers will always choose you. But also if you’re asking this question im positive this doesn’t apply to you or anyone reading lol.

When looking, you’ll want to calculate what you qualify for in terms of a loan, and estimated mortgage payments. Things to consider are: your current expenses, the interest rate, are the houses you’re looking at in areas with an HOA/POA? What are the property taxes like? And ofc, based on a 15/30 year payment plan, how much a month will you be able to pay? Look up mortgage calculator on google and you’ll find plenty of websites that can run the numbers for you. When you look at homes on say, Zillow, you should be able to find the applicable info needed paired with your own finances. (Side note. Zillow sucks and a lot of sites show you very outdated estimates. Half the properties are already closed on. Realtors have access to the MLS, which is the most up to date and accurate listing service).

One solution is to rent out the other rooms to friends or randos who aren’t quite ready to buy. Like I said, it’s not for everyone and there’s always someone who will need to rent. So long as you’re not gouging them and being an asshole landlord, I think this is a pretty feasible option. You’re the property manager living there so you’re forced to fix leaky pipes and shit, and since you’re paying half the rent you can charge affordable prices. A lot of rooms in my area are going for 900+. If I buy a house with just 2 extra bedrooms, I can easily charge 300 less and still make my mortgage at a little under half that price.

This isn’t surefire though. If you can’t afford a mortgage without renting, maybe it’s not time yet. It also depends on what you’re willing to live in. Can you afford a town house or duplex? What about a trailer? Will it appreciate or will you be stuck with this sunk cost property you hate and don’t want to live in?

Just be smart and realistic about what you can afford, *where* you can, how long you’d want it to build equity, and who you’d live with if your pursue the rental option. It’s not nearly as scary as it sounds! I HIGHLY recommend talking to either parents, older friends, AND/OR a realtor! A lot of people think realtors are a scam but trust me! They will absolutely earn their pay. Just pick from a local company, not someone who’s apart of anything named after one guy or woman. These people are almost always huge assholes and tend the to charge more. They usually get paid 3ish% (around here at least. In NY it can be up to 10% lol) from their broker. If the buyer doesn’t pay the broker then the seller is forced to fork it up and nobody ever wants to fucking pay it. But they’ll hook you up with a loan officer, termite and moisture inspectors, a home inspector, tree guys, shed guys, contractors of all sorts. A lot of which are necessary (the first three at least for an FHA). They can also better guide you through your options than I could, and will actively tailor a criteria for your needs and use it to search for houses, as well as scheduling the tours and fighting with the other realtor to get you the best price possible. Speaking as someone who’s done these negotiations I can assure you that a good realtor can actually save you money and stress in the long run. They’ll think of things and remind you of shit you would’ve never thought of.

Sorry this is a huge answer but it’s true it’s true! good luck out there pal!

[libraford]

I just want to say, I'm so sorry that you guys are having to deal with this, I know how scary this can be, I know I wanted to just hear someone say that it's sucks you're dealing with this,

So Im sorry this is happening to you, it sucks, it's a shitty situation,

My anxiety is making it bigger than it is, but its truly fucking shitty.

One of the things that's eating at me is that, short of having enough money to simply buy a house in cash, these problems are not solved by throwing a wad of cash at it.

Because the problem with buying the house was not that I didn't HAVE enough (I did have enough, but to simply buy the house would deplete my entire savings and I would have no way of clawing out of that) it was that I didn't MAKE enough. So the solution to that problem is to get paid more. I have a raise coming in August, but theres two months in the summer where I make nothing. So I got a summer job for those two months and I did the bunny thing, but that's only 5K more than I made last year and I'd still be short about 10k to meet the barest minimum for an FHA loan, according to the guy I talked to on the phone.

Okay so Plan B was to find an apartment at a lower rate since the roommates are moving out soon. But every time I applied to an apartment I would either:

-get beat out by someone with a faster clicker and who doesnt need a cosigner

-would go to apply only to be told that there were no units available

-the scam alarms go off.

Clearly its just a bad time for me to move. So to save my mental health a little bit because looking on Zillow was turning into a form of self-harm, we decided to stay in the rental house we're currently in and hope that the month-to-month upcharge won't eat away at my savings.

But.

Our rental is through a property manager, which means that any communication to the landlord has to go through our agent who appears to have her own schedule. I asked her on March 30th for some options and after emailing her every day for the past week she called me back on April 19th with 'I'll have to ask the owners, I'll get back to you tomorrow.'

And then she didn't get back to me.

And that's what I've been writing to my senator about because fuck this shit.

Buying A House With A FHA 203k Loan Explained

If you're in the market for a new home, you may have heard of the FHA 203k loan. This type of loan allows you to purchase a home that needs some renovations with a single loan that covers both the purchase price and the cost of the renovations.

What is an FHA 203k Loan?

An FHA 203k loan is a type of mortgage that allows you to purchase a home and finance the cost of renovations at the same time. There are two types of 203k loans: the standard 203k loan and the limited 203k loan. The standard 203k loan is for more extensive renovations, such as structural repairs, while the limited 203k loan is for smaller repairs, such as replacing appliances or installing new flooring.

With an FHA 203k loan, you'll need to work with a contractor to create a detailed renovation plan as per FHA loan requirements, which will be submitted to the lender for approval. Once the loan is approved, the funds will be disbursed to the contractor as the work is completed. This means that you won't have to pay for the renovations out of pocket, and you'll only have one loan payment to make each month.

Step 1: Determine if You're Eligible for an FHA 203k Loan

Before you can apply for an FHA 203k loan, you'll need to make sure you meet the FHA loan requirements. To qualify for this loan, you must:

Have a minimum credit score of 580

Have a debt-to-income ratio of no more than 43%

Have a down payment of at least 3.5%

Use the loan to purchase a property that will be your primary residence

Have a reliable source of income

Step 2: Find a Property That Needs Renovations

Once you know you meet all the FHA loan requirements for an FHA 203k loan, you can start searching for a property that needs renovations. It's important to keep in mind that not all properties are eligible under FHA loan requirements for this type of loan. The property must meet the following requirements:

It must be a one- to four-unit property that has been completed for at least one year.

The property must be located in a community that meets certain standards for safety and livability.

The cost of the renovations must be at least $5,000.

The renovations cannot include any luxury items, such as swimming pools or outdoor kitchens.

It's important to work with a real estate agent who is experienced in working with FHA 203k loans, as they can help you identify properties that meet these FHA loan requirements.

Step 3: Work with a Lender to Get Pre-Approved for a Loan

Once you've found a property you're interested in, you'll need to work with a lender to get pre-approved for an FHA 203k loan. During this process, the lender will review your credit score, debt-to-income ratio, and other financial information to determine how much you can borrow.

It's important to work with a lender who has experience with FHA 203k loans, as the process can be more complex than a traditional mortgage. Your lender can help you navigate the process and answer any questions you may have.

Step 4: Get a Home Inspection and Create a Renovation Plan

Before you can apply for an FHA 203k loan, you'll need to get a home inspection and create a renovation plan. The home inspection will identify any issues with the property that need to be addressed, and the renovation plan will outline the scope of work and estimated costs.

It's important to work with a licensed contractor to create the renovation plan, as this will be submitted to the lender for approval. The renovation plan must be detailed and include all of the work that will be done, as well as the estimated costs.

Step 5: Close on the Property and Begin Renovations

Once your loan is approved and you've closed on the property, you can begin the renovations. The funds from the loan will be disbursed to the contractor as the work is completed. It's important to work closely with your contractor throughout the renovation process to ensure the work is done to your satisfaction.

Buying a house with an FHA 203k loan can be a great option if you're interested in a fixer-upper. By following these steps and working with experienced professionals, you can successfully navigate the process and create the home of your dreams.

Advice On How To Get A Renovation Loan For Your Project In Houston

Do you need a loan for a renovation project you have coming up? We must have thought of you. While many people find the process of applying for a remodeling loan to be tedious, we make it very simple in this post.

This article discusses the numerous loan requirements, different forms of renovation loans in Houston, and expert suggestions for a successful project if you didn't know you could receive a loan for your restoration work or believed it would be difficult to secure a loan.

A 203(K) FHA loan

The most well-liked and reasonably priced loans in the US are FHA 203(L) loans. And the reason for this is because they are supported by the government and have the most favourable qualification standards. You can refinance or purchase a primary residence using an FHA 203(k) loan, and you can add the whole cost of the modifications to your mortgage to pay for them over time.

Loans for Home Equity

You can borrow money based on the value of your property with a renovation home equity loan. Your equity house payment will need to be made separately if you already have a mortgage because it doesn't cancel off the previous loan. Applying for a home equity loan may make sense if you have accumulated a considerable amount of home equity or if you need to finance a significant one-time project. 

Individual Loan

A personal loan is yet another option to pay for your home remodeling. Using an unsecured home renovation loan has the benefit of not requiring security for the loan. They are also the easiest loans to obtain because of this. Despite having higher interest rates, personal loans can be repaid over durations of two to five years and have flexible rates (fixed and adjustable). in order to be eligible for an unsecured personal loan.

Employ Qualified Personnel

Your remodeling expense can easily balloon and spiral out of control without a proper plan. Working with experts is beneficial in this regard. At Smart Remodeling, we make an extra effort to develop a plan that works for your circumstances and make sure we stick to that plan throughout the remodeling process to get the desired outcomes. Additionally, we'll work with you to prevent unforeseen catastrophes and ensure that the project is completed successfully and under budget.

Select the Best Loan for You

Make important to search around and become familiar with the conditions of each loan before applying for any home renovation loan. You shouldn't take out a loan that will take you a lifetime to pay back or, worse yet, one that you're likely to fail on. Should you refinance your mortgage or combine your savings with your remodeling loan, or would you want to cash them out? Compare the many financing options and choose the one that best suits your needs.

#Repost @loan_girl_rissa ... FHA JUST GOT MORE AFFORDABLE❗ YES, IT'S TRUE! FHA has announced a reduction in the Annual Mortgage Insurance Premium (MIP) rates. The reduction will apply to new loans, for case numbers assigned after March 20, and will result in a lower monthly payment for borrowers. For a loan amount of $400,000, the current monthly MIP payment is $266. With the new policy, the premium rate will decrease from 0.80% to 0.50%, resulting in a monthly payment of $166. This represents a significant reduction of $100 per month in mortgage insurance payments, which can make a substantial difference for many borrowers. The reduction in MIP rates is intended to make homeownership more affordable for more Americans, particularly first-time homebuyers. The FHA plays a critical role in making homeownership possible for many people who would otherwise struggle to qualify for a mortgage. The reduction in MIP rates is expected to make FHA loans even more attractive to borrowers, who will benefit from lower monthly payments and increased purchasing power.

How to Choose the Right Loan as a New Homeowner

Understanding Loan Types

The first step to choosing the right loan is knowing the types available to first-time homeowners. Each option comes with its own set of pros and cons that can impact your home-buying experience. Here are the most common first-time homeowner loan options you’ll encounter:

Conventional Loans

Conventional loans, which aren't backed by the government, are the most popular choice for homeowners. While they tend to have more stringent credit and down payment requirements, they offer flexibility in loan terms and conditions.

FHA Loans

Federal Housing Administration (FHA) loans are designed to help people with lower credit scores and smaller down payments enter the housing market. An FHA loan typically requires a down payment as low as 3.5%, which makes homeownership more accessible if saving up a large lump sum isn’t realistic.

VA Loans

If you’re a military veteran or an active-duty service member, VA loans are worth exploring. They require no down payment or private mortgage insurance, which means significant savings upfront and over time. You need to meet the specific eligibility criteria, and the home you’re buying must be your primary residence.

USDA Loans

The loans don’t require a down payment and come with low interest rates. However, income limits and location restrictions apply, so it’s important to check if you qualify based on where you plan to live.

Assessing Your Financial Situation

Before you jump into a loan, it’s important to get a good understanding of your financial situation. Take a look at your credit score, savings, and monthly budget. Lenders will weigh these factors heavily in determining what loan options you qualify for and what terms you’ll receive.

· Credit score: A higher credit score will generally get you better interest rates, especially for conventional loans.

· Down payment: Know how much you can comfortably save up without stretching yourself too thin.

· Debt-to-income ratio: Lenders will assess your current debts versus your income to see how much house you can afford.

Hidden Costs to Keep in Mind

Don’t forget about the extra costs that come with homeownership. Beyond your monthly mortgage payment, you’ll need to budget for property taxes, homeowners insurance, and possibly private mortgage insurance. Closing costs are also something to factor into your overall home-buying budget.

Getting Ready to Sign on the Dotted Line

After exploring the various loans for first-time homeowners, you’ll feel more equipped to select the best loan for your needs. By weighing the costs beyond the monthly mortgage, you’re setting yourself up for a smart investment that fits your future goals.
