Zero-Down Financing is Back! --at least in some places

We're now offering the recently released re-introduction of zero-down financing. Here are some of the pertinent details:

620 minimum credit score (subject to DU approval)
45% max DTI
$500 minimum borrower investment
1 month verified reserves
3% borrower contribution OK
140% of median-income max (about $100K in the Chicago MSA)
1-2 units and condos OK (
92% first with an 8% second at 8% interest amortized over 20 years
.9 MI factor

Chicago IS NOT on the relevant "distressed markets list" --Florida, California, Nevada and many counties in Michigan are.

Rate is somewhat more than what you'd expect to pay if you had a 720 and 20% down.....but it's not outrageous and definitely worth it for someone who really wants that house/condo and has the income but lacks the downpayment.

Feel free to get in touch for more information.
