MORTGAGE COSTS SET TO SOAR IN 2014
Loan-Level Price Adjustment Could Shock the U.S. Housing Market in 2014
- More Headwinds for U.S. Housing Market. Mortgage costs for borrowers without big down payments and with less-than-perfect credit scores are set to rise next spring as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac prepare to boost fees they charge mortgage lenders.
- Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac Set to Boost Fees in March 2014. According to the WSJ, buyers with a credit score of 735 making a 10% down payment will pay fees totaling 2% of the loan amount, up from 0.75% right now. For borrowers making a 10% down payment with credit scores of 750, fees will increase to 1.5% from 0.5%; and for those loans with a borrower credit score of 775, the upfront fee will rise to 1% from 0.5%. Even borrowers with big down payments could see higher fees. For those with a 690 credit score and a whopping 25% down payment, fees will jump to 2.25% of the loan amount, from 1.5%.
- Time to Buy Investment Properties. With America increasingly turning into a “renter nation,” and with mortgage rates nowhere to go but up, now is a good time to scoop up cheap rental properties before the rules become even more strict.
