  1. Ch 3: Loans: Conventional By Dr. D. Grogan M.C. “Buzz” Chambers

  2. The purpose of this unit is to acquaint the learner with the various types of non-government loans available in the conventional lending arena. These loans usually follow FNMA, GNMA or FHLMC guidelines. New loans become available on a regular basis to meet new consumer demands. Some traditional loan programs do not always have funding available by investors for particular types of loans. The market is ever changing and the mortgage loan broker must be flexible. Other loans are SBA, reverse mortgages, refinance loans, junior liens, equity loans and less than “A” paper loans. Defaults are also discussed. PREVIEW

  6. 3.1 How a Loan Broker selects a loan What is the lender’s ability to lock in an interest rate? What date or event will the loan rate tie to: application date, funding date, advertised rate? What loan points, fees, and costs go with which kind of loan? Will the lender give you references of other loan brokers who use this lender? What is the average time to close the loan once a processed loan is submitted? What loan terms and programs are available to the loan broker? What are underwriting guidelines that the lender prefers for the loan package?

  7. 3.2 Conventional loan features NOT a government loan & NOT insured by state or federal agency Conforming loan guidelines for secondary market: Maximum loan amount Minimum qualification for borrower & property Secondary money market loans must meet the guideline standards set by FNMA or FHLMC

  8. CONVENTIONAL LOAN FEATURES Prefer single-family, owner-occupied homes or condos. Prefer working with only certain loan programs. No one conventional lender dominates the market. Different conventional lenders have different stacking orders. Processing time varies from conventional lender to lender. Typical down payment required on many of these loans ranges from five to ten percent.

  9. CONVENTIONAL LOAN FEATURES (cont) Loan-to-Value (LTV) ratios Up to 95% of the appraised property value Interest rates and loan fees will vary Each lender sets own guidelines for LTV Amortized loan payment Some principal and interest payment. Impound account may be required for taxes and insurance.

  10. Conventional Loans Loans made by institutional lenders: Life insurance companies prefer larger loans. Commercial banks prefer loans on construction, refinance & home equity line. Savings prefer owner occupied home loans.

  11. Conventional Loans Loans made by non-institutional lenders: Mortgage Companies prefer saleable loans Loan correspondent represents one company, usually for income property loans Funded by a mortgage banker Private investors include sellers who carry back junior loans on property they sell Soft money loan is when a seller is the lender Hard money loan is funded by an outside source

  12. Conventional Loan Amounts • OTS sets upper limits on loan-to-value (LTV) (for S&Ls only, not for all mortgage lenders) • High-cost areas maximum loan amounts changed Jan 2, 2009 • Land up to 65% • Land development up to 75% • Multifamily & commercial property up to 80% • 1-4 family properties up to 95%-100%

Super-conforming loan • Borrower must have • good credit • 3 months house payment as a reserve • Interest rate • 1%-1.5% higher than conforming loan • Slightly higher than conforming loan • Less costly than jumbo loan • A basis point = one hundredth of a percent • Loan costs 25-30 basis points over conforming loan

  16. Eligibility Requirements for High-Balance Loans Loans must be conventional first loans ONLY. One-to-four unit properties are eligible. Loans may be fixed-rate or adjustable rate, but NO balloon payment is permitted. Loans may be underwritten manually or with Desktop Underwriter (DU). Loans must meet the loan-to-value (LTV), combined loan-to-value (CLTV), and home equity combined loan-to-value (MCLTV) ratio requirements. Borrowers must meet the minimum credit score requirements.

  22. Bi-Weekly Fixed Rate Loan Shortens the life of the loan The borrower makes 26 payments a year – one every two weeks Reduces the total interest paid

  23. 10- or 15- year loan Lower interest rate Shorter duration Pays off a 30 year about 9 years early To convert a 30 year loan to 15 year payoff, pay 4.5% more each year.

  25. WHAT TO KNOW ABOUT ARM’s Probability of Negative Amortization? How often will the Rate Change? Is there a Payment Cap? Is there a Rate Cap? Initial Interest Rate? Option to Convert Fixed Rate? How Often will Payment Change?

  26. ADJUSTABLE RATE MORTGAGES • Interest Rate Cap over the life of the loan • Lifetime Cap: Maximum interest rate • Per-Adjustment Cap: The max allowable up or down adjustment • Conversion Option: Terms to convert to fixed rate • Payment Cap: • Payment Adjustment Period: Over the life of the loan • Rate Adjustment Period: At any one adjustment period • Teaser Rate: Low initial rate with adjustments where • borrower qualifies for later, higher rate • Negative Amortization: Difference between fully • indexed rate, minus actual amount paid which is added • to unpaid loan balance.

  27. ADJUSTABLE LOAN(Note: Index changed every 6 months; Payment adjusted twice, year 3 (up) & year 6 (down) 1st Payment Adjustment (UP) Payment 2nd Payment Adjustment (DOWN) Index

  28. ADJUSTABLE RATE MORTGAGES Lower initial rate with shared risk of rising interest rate. Index is a published indicator: COFI, LIBOR, 11th district, prime rate, moving averages. Margin is a fixed rate added to an index. Note rate is interest actually charged on the amountborrowed (index + margin). Historical rate information must be given to borrower.

  30. Other conventional loans • Two-Step • Interest rate adjusted only once • Rate usually adjusted at year five or seven • Price Level-Adjusted Mortgage (PLAM) • The rate is the same as the Consumer Price Index • Adjustment in monthly payment and outstanding principal annually.

  31. Reverse Annuity Mortgage (RAM) • Borrower must be age 62 or older • Borrower equity rich, but cash poor • Loan may be a lump sum or a line of credit • Must occupy the property as their principal residence • Single-purpose reverse mortgage that may be used for only one specified purpose (to pay property taxes or make a home repair). • Federally insured reverse mortgage that may be used for any purpose and is available throughout the United States, providing the largest advances that are convention, insured loans. • Proprietary reverse mortgages may be used for any purpose and are designed for advances where the property value is substantially more than the median home value in the country, called high-cost areas. http://www.aarp.org/revmort

  32. RAM loan options ARM payment option-Borrower: Receives monthly payment for fixed period they select. Receive monthly payment until they no longer occupy the property as their principal residence. May draw the principal in equal monthly payments. May draw cash at times & amounts of their choosing. May change from one option to another for a fee with HUD authorization. Fixed-rate Single payment option Borrower may draw entire line of credit at closing. Future draws or access are allowed only for repairs or servicing fees. FNMA will only fund closed-end, fully drawn, fixed-rate HECMs that comply w/HUD regulations.

  33. Step to obtain a RAM Awareness: Go online to learn about reverse mortgage for general information. Action: Contact a reverse mortgage lender or NRMLA. Counseling: Obtain counseling from a HUD approved counseling agency or AARP-trained counselor. Counseling is mandatory, regardless of which program chosen. Application: The homeowner completes an application and selects the payment option: fixed monthly payments, lump sum amount, line of credit or combination. Processing: Loan broker orders title and lien payoffs. Financial institution orders appraisal to determine the property value and physical condition of the property. Underwriting: Loan broker finalizes loan parameters with the homeowner and submits the loan package to an underwriter for final loan approval.

  34. Step to obtain a RAM (cont.) Closing: After the loan is approved and the closing date is scheduled for the signing of the final loan documents, the loan closes escrow. The initial and expected interest rates are then calculated and the final figures are prepared. Once completed, the homeowner signs the new loan papers. Funding: The homeowner has three business days to cancel the loan. After the three days, the loan funds are disbursed. Payments: The homeowner does not make any monthly loan payment to the lender during the life of the loan. The loan is due upon death or sale.
