100% Mortgage Loans - The need to put 5, 10, or even 20% down on a home no longer exists. Many mortgage professionals have the ability to offer their customers 100% financing in a variety of ways.Buying a home has become much easier because mortgages with no down payment required have become much more available in the mortgage market.
Lenders have increased the loan amounts they are willing to lend with no down payment. Some lenders have reduced the credit score required. In addition, some lenders are offering interest-only payments to make qualifying easier.
We offer loans with no down payment required up to $1,400,000 with a credit score as low as 620. We also offer loans with no down payment required up to $700,000 with a credit score as low as 580. Full documentation and stated income loans are available.
If you decide to take a single, 100% loan you may have to have Private Mortgage Insurance. This is usually required when a loan amount is greater than 80% of the homes value. Ask your preferred Mortgage Professional if PMI is right for you.
100% financing programs have brought the reality of owning a home to many people who thougt they never could be homeowners.
You may want to check with your loan officer and ask if you may be able to receive better pricing with the 70/30 combo instead of the 80/20. Any of the combo loans will avoid the mortgage insurance.
100% financing is not only availabe when you are purchasing a home. It is also available through refinancing or a 2nd mortgage on a home you already own.
You can obtain 100% financing by obtaining a 1st and a 2nd mortgage. This is commonly referred to as an 80/20 loan. One of the main reasons for obtaining this type of 100%, zero money down, financing is to eliminate the need to pay mortgage insurance, or PMI. With this type of financing you are still able to obtain nice low interest rates and avoid the costly premiums associated with mortgage insurance.
With 100 Percent financing, you may end up paying a high interest rate. By splitting the loan into an 80% First Mortgage and a 20% Second Mortgage, you may be able to lower your overall or "blended" rate.
