No Money Down First Time Home Buyer Loans in Illinois: FHA, VA and Rural Housing

10-26-08

Utilize Illinois government sponsored loan programs to purchase or refinance your current mortgage.

Illinois no money down home loans enable those who have not been able to save for a down payment to realize the dream of home ownership. Inlanta Mortgage offers three mortgage programs still available with little or no money down 100% financing for all Illinois residents:

  • Illinois FHA Loans
  • Illinois VA Loans
  • Illinois Rural Housing Loans

Illinois FHA Loans:

FHA loans are federally insured loans that allow buyers who have little or no credit history, coupled with limited funds available for down payment, to obtain a mortgage with a great interest rate and low monthly payments. FHA home loans are available for Illinois first time buyers and for borrowers that have not used an FHA home loan in the past 3 years. Illinois FHA Loans are assumable and streamline refinancing to lower the interest rate is available.

Illinois VA Loans:

Illinois VA loans continue to be eligible for 100% financing, of course only those few borrowers with a VA Certificate of Eligibility are able to qualify for this loan. In addition to no down payment, VA home loans have the added benefit of not requiring PMI or private mortgage insurance. VA mortgage loans are guaranteed by The Department of Veterans Affairs, but are made by private lenders to eligible veterans for the purchase of a home. VA loans offer up to 100% financing on the value of a home.

Illinois Rural Housing Loans:

Illinois Rural home loans are optimal for first-time buyers in approved Rural Housing Service areas. USDA rural housing loan programs allow qualified homebuyers to get loans with minimal closing costs and no down payment. The purpose of this loan program is to enable eligible low and moderate income (up to 115 percent of the Area Median Family Income) rural residents to acquire modestly priced housing for their own use as a primary residence. The Guarantee Rural Housing Loans also have flexible credit standards, expanded qualifying ratios, no maximum purchase price limits and generous income limits.

These programs are not restricted to first time home buyers

Also, homeowners struggling with high interest rates can take advantage of government programs in place to help refinance out of high risk / high interest loans.

An Illinois no money down mortgage loan is an excellent choice for a home buyer, who may not have enough money for the standard 20% down payment.

How to Obtain a Rural Housing Mortgage Loan in Wisconsin and Illinois with No Money Down

USDA RH

In today's shrinking credit market, the USDA rural housing loan program is one of the best no money down mortgage financing options in Wisconsin and Illinois.

This post is for home buyers that may not have a good working knowledge of the features and benefits of the US Department of Agriculture's Guaranteed Rural Housing program in Wisconsin and Illinois. I have come to believe that it is one of the most under-utilized mortgage loan programs in the United States. It has many flexible features not found in Conventional and FHA loans.

Rural Home Loan advantages:
If the home you wish to buy is in an area that meets certain population criteria and you are within their ncome limits, Rural Housing offers loans on new and existing properties with cost-saving advantages. Here are some of the key features and program benefits:

· No down payment required.
· No Mortgage Insurance.
· No seller contribution limit.
· No Prepayment Penalty
· Loan up to 102%* of appraised value allowed...not the lesser of Sale Price or Appraisal
· Loan amount can include closing costs and prepaids up to appraised value.
· No stated maximum loan amount; maximum loan based on repayment ability
· No First Time Homebuyer Requirement
· New and existing homes OK
· Fully amortized 30-year fixed rate loan
· Non-traditional credit may substitute for lack of traditional credit history.
· No derogatory credit explanations required when credit score is 620 or above.
· Rent is not verified with FICO of 620 or more.
· Competitive rates

Buying an Illinois home is probably the biggest purchase you'll ever make. Without the proper information, it can also be the most difficult. The following steps will prepare you for the responsibilities of owning a home.

Step 1: Getting Pre-Qualified
Pre-qualification, the first step in obtaining a mortgage, is a quick comparison of your household income, debts, employment and estimated house payments. This step walks you through the process, verifying your eligibility, gathering basic information, and recommending available mortgage programs. read more...

Step 2: Finding an Affordable Property?
Finding an affordable property in Illinois, especially in or around the Chicago, can be quite a challenge. Once you've defined what you can afford to spend, take the time to define your wants and needs in a house, neighborhood and community.

Step 3: Making an Offer
Making an offer on a house may be the single most intimidating step for the first time home buyer. read more...

Step 4: Applying for a Mortgage
With an accepted offer in hand, it's time to start shopping for a loan. Even if you're pre-qualified with a lender, an educated home buyer will compare the terms of the different loan options that may be available. apply online...

Step 5: The Home Inspection
To protect yourself before you buy, you need to know everything you can about the condition of your prospective home. A home inspection is an in-depth examination of a home, and will identify any potential problems and necessary repairs.

Step 6: The Closing Process
Last but not least, it's time to close the loan. The final step in the process walks you through the loan closing, where the title is transferred from the seller to the buyer, and where the financial transaction is completed. Read about the final walk-through, closing costs and what to expect during the closing itself. read more...
