WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Fannie Mae plans to raise minimum credit score requirements next month and limit the amount of overall debt that borrowers can carry relative to their incomes, The Washington Post reported on Thursday. Starting December 12, the automated system that the government-controlled mortgage finance company uses to approve loans will reject borrowers who have at least a 20 percent down payment but whose credit scores fall below 620 out of 850, the newspaper reported. Previously, the cut-off was 580. Also, for borrowers with a 20 percent down payment, no more than 45 percent of their gross monthly income can go toward paying debts, the newspaper said. A Fannie Mae spokesman told the newspaper that the limits reflect the company's recent experience. Loans to people with cre...

The good news is that home sales, pending contracts, and closings are on the rise.  As I said before we hope this is a light at the end of the tunnel, and I don't mean a freight train.  Our Market Center has had two very good months, for both gross commissions earned and profitability. One of the things I have become aware of is the increased building activity among homebuilders in the Waxhaw, NC and Weddington, NC areas, as well as the areas of Lancaster and York Counties just next door to Charlotte.  This is going to be a key factor in getting the economy rolling again, and some relief to the unemployment numbers. One area that you, if you are a near future buyer, should be investgating is Waxhaw NC.  Waxhwaw is located at the south end of Hwy 16, due south of Charlotte.  It is 6 mile...

  POSTED BY THE WALL STREET JOURNAL TODAY 10/29/2009 Wall Street Journal 10/29/09   WASHINGTON -- Senate negotiators reached a tentative deal to extend a tax credit for first-time home buyers, but its passage remains uncertain. The agreement would extend the existing credit for first-time home buyers, worth up to $8,000, while offering a new credit of up to $6,500 for some existing homeowners, Senate aides said. The reduced credit would be available to all home buyers who have been in their current residence for a consecutive five-year period in the past eight years. The new provisions are aimed at broadening availability of the credit beyond first-time buyers and giving the weakened real-estate market a bigger boost while preventing real-estate investors from benefiting. Many property ...
