FHA Flip rule - We allow FHA Flips per the FHA Flip Rule Waiver

FHA Flip rule - 1 day owned by seller OK

The Seller seasoning requirement on our FHA Loans is one day. That is correct, one day. While FHA has released guidance for lenders allowing the Flip Rule to be Waived for all Sellers until Feb 1, 2011, many lenders still require that sellers own a home for 90-180 days before it is eligible for their FHA Financing. We do not require these waiting periods for FHA Loans.

Seller Seasoning simply means how long the current owner has owned the property (as recorded on Title Records). Seller seasoning is also called Owner seasoning. The contract date must be after the date of acquisition for the seller, a redated contract is not allowable.

This is in complete alignment with the HUD guidelines for FHA Loans. The other lenders that have added restrictions are reducing the eligibility for Homebuyers to use FHA Loans to purchase homes from investors who may have purchased the home at a foreclosure auction, or direct from a bank. This opens the door for more homes to be eligible for safe, secure, and sound FHA financing. Many of these homes have been completely rehabilitated, making them a more desirable home to buy: they are Turn key homes.

Our FHA Rules can help you avoid the issue of FHA seller seasoning, FHA Flip Rules, and big bank rules that restrict access to quality FHA Loans.

Get started on your FHA Home loan with the FHA Loan Pros at VanDyk. Visit us at http://www.vandykfunding.com/ to apply online, or call 760-752-4480 and ask for Brian Skaar.

There are some guidelines for FHA Flips under 90 days that will require some attention. If the home increased in price more than 20% from the sellers acquisition cost, the increase in price will need to be justified with renovation records, the sale must be arms-length (No Idendity of Interest between buyer and seller), multiple flipping within previous 12 months is a red flag, no assignment of contracts, property inspection may be required, and buyer's agent cannot be the seller of the home.

VA Flip Rules for California and Washington VA Loans

VA flip rules for California and Washington VA Loans

We just posted an article on our other VA Blog that covers our Owner Seasoning Rules AKA VA Flip Rule. VanDyk Mortgage only requires sellers to be on Title (owner of record) for one day prior to selling the home again. This is important, as many homes are bought direct from the big banks in bulk by Investors who fix up the homes and put them on the market for resale.

Many VA Lenders require a waiting period before the Home Can Qualify for a new VA Loan in this scenario. VanDyk Mortgage has no waiting period for a va loan after the prior sale.

We offer these on VA Condo's as well as using VA Loans and VA Jumbo Loans to purchase a single family home. We serve California, Washington, San Diego, Riverside, Temecula, Murrieta, Irvine, Los Angeles, Ventura, San Jose, San Francisco, Seattle, bellevue, redmond, and all parts in between for VA Loans.

VA Myth - VA loans are only available to $417K

VA Myth - VA loans are only available to $417K. Myth no more, read below.

It is a common myth with VA Loans is that they don't work for your area, or the loan amounts are too low for your area. In the past this was true, but recent changes have changed the picture. VA loans are available much higher than $417K.

Please see our VA Loan Limits page for details on your county limits.

The loan limits above $417,000 are called VA Jumbo Loans. While many counties in the country are limited to the $417,000 amount, that isn't the highest VA loan available for that county. VanDyk Mortgage offers VA loans up to $1,094,625 in all the states we serve. What changes is the amount of required home equity or down payment. Each case is unique.

In counties where the loan limit is lower than your purchase price or refinance loan amount, you may have to have equity (for a VA Jumbo refinance) or put a down payment (for a VA Jumbo Purchase).

So what is the benefit of using a VA loan in this scenario? - Lower down payments than conventional alternatives, fixed rates, no Mortgage Insurance.

Let's say you live in a county where the VA loan limit is $417,000 (such as Riverside or San Bernardino counties in California). You want to purchase a home that is $450,000 with a little of down payment possible. Assume that you have full VA eligibility & fully restored Entitlement. VanDyk Mortgage will allow a VA loan in this scenario up to $441,750, requiring just $8,250 down payment, or 1.83%.

The goal of the VA calculation is the reach a guarantee figure of 25% of the loan amount. This can be a combination of the Entitlement and a down payment.

Here is the math to figure this out:
1. Take your county loan limit (in this case $417,000) and multiply times 25% to reach your maximum entitlement and guaranty available ($417,000 x .25 = $104,250)
2. Take your purchase price and multiply times the minimum guaranty required. ($450,000 X .25 = $112,500)
** since this figure is higher than your maximum guaranty and entitlement from #1, we must now figure out how to handle the shortage.
3. Take #2, the Minimum required guaranty ($112,500) and subtract the available guaranty and entitlement for you ($104,250) and it yields us $8,250.

$8,250 represents the required down payment for purchasing a $450,000 property in a county with a VA loan limit of $417,000 for a Veteran or Active Duty Service Member with full Entitlement available. $8,250 is a 1.83% down payment. Now that is a huge benefit for our Veterans. This is far superior to the conventional loan alternatives or even FHA loans.

When your bank tells you that you need to put down 10% for a conventional loan, Call VanDyk Mortgage and go with a VA loan instead. You will be glad you called.

VanDyk Mortgage is a VA Direct Lender (since 1987) offering VA Loans such as VA purchase loans, VA Streamline Refinance, VA IRRRL, VA Refinance Loans, VA Jumbo purchase loans, VA Jumbo Refinance Loans, VA Jumbo Streamline Refinance loans, VA Jumbo IRRRL , VA Mortgages of all types.

FHA Jumbo Refinance, FHA Jumbo Purchase loans & FHA Jumbo Streamline Refinance loans - California

FHA Jumbo Refinance, FHA Jumbo Purchase loans & FHA Jumbo Streamline Refinance loans - California

We are continuing to see the FHA Jumbo Refinance become a more common option for California Homeowners. This loan allows you to refinance your first mortgage into a Safe, Fixed Rate FHA Loan at terms that are typically more favorable than conventional lending options. If your home has come down in value, the FHA option may still be able to help you refinance out of your Adjustable rate loan. FHA requires less equity in your home than Conventional loans.

FHA Jumbo Loans are loans that are $417,001 up to your county's Mortgage limit. For example, in California, the FHA Jumbo Loan limit is $697,500 for San Diego, $729,750 for Los Angeles, $729,750 for Orange County, $729,750 for Ventura, Santa Clara, San Francisco, Santa Cruz, Contra Costa, Alameda, & Napa counties, and San Bernardino & Riverside counties are eligible up to $500,000.

No declining market restrictions - 100% cash out - VA Loans

There are No declining market restrictions on our 100% cash out refinance VA Loans.

I forgot to mention this in the last blog post; blog post on 100% cash out VA refinances.

There is no limitation on which states qualify for the 100% cash out refi option on these loans, there is no additional declining market cap on LTV like Fannie, Freddie, & private loans. All "declining" markets are fully eligible for these loans, including California, Arizona, Nevada, Florida, Georgia, etc.

100% financing in California

100% financing in California. It still exists.

Fannie, Freddie, & the Private Mortgage Insurance companies have limited California purchases to a minimum of 10% down payment, or a maximum of 90%.

For Veterans & Active Duty Service members the VA loan still offers 100%, no money down financing in California. Recent enhancements for 2009 loans have increased the loan limits, and your entitlement might be higher that you thought. For example, San Diego VA loans are available up to $593,750, Los Angeles up to $737,500, Orange County up to $737,500, and San Bernardino / Riverside up to $417,000.

For non-Military, FHA is an incredible option for Home ownership at just 3.5% downpayment required.
