FHA Mortgage Refinancing
Our mortgage lenders specialize in providing FHA refinance offers with the best refinance rates, terms and costs to help you lower your current payment. FHA mortgage refinancing has overtaken non traditional mortgages for loan volume this year with borrowers that have credit scores below 620. Most lenders attribute the rise in FHA refinancing from the lack of subprime products. The FHA has also made huge strides in reforming their lending guidelines. Their recent changes have helped thousands of homeowners refinance their adjustable rate mortgage loans.
Senate Passes FHA Reform Bill
The FHA Modernization Act of 2007, was passed by the Senate. The reformed FHA system will give borrowers a better alternative to subprime mortgage products.
"A reformed FHA is positioned to help home owners who face unaffordable mortgage payments as a result of resetting adjustable subprime loans and help bring stability to local markets and economies," says NAR President Richard (Dick) Gaylord.

The National Association of Realtors has long supported FHA modernization legislation that would increase loan limits, reduce or eliminate the statutory 3 percent minimum cash down payment, and give FHA increased flexibility and the ability to streamline certain programs, in addition to strengthening the loss mitigation program.
In addition, the increase in FHA mortgage loan limits would help first-time home buyers, minority buyers, and people who do not qualify for conventional mortgages, according to NAR. Increased loan limits would also help people living in high-cost areas; current FHA limits make the program unusable in these areas, Gaylord says.
Gaylord says that FHA has made mortgage insurance widely available to individuals regardless of race, ethnicity or social status during periods of prosperity and economic depression. The FHA program makes it possible for higher risk yet creditworthy borrowers to obtain prime financing.
The House had passed its own FHA bill Sept. 18. House leaders now will have to decide whether to clear the more limited Senate legislation or insist on a conference to reconcile the competing versions.
