Beware of the "smoke and mirrors" of newly popular 2-1 Buydown Mortgage.  Might be more sizzle than steak.

Here is how it is being sold to buyers - The seller will “buydown” your interest rate 2% in the first year and 1% in the second year.   Instead of a rate of 7%, your first year will be 5% and your second year will be 6%.  After that you will pay 7% for the life of your loan.

Here's what is actually happening – The seller is contributing to reduce your payments for the first two years AS IF the interest rate was reduced for the first two years..

Let's look at the math based on a current rate of 7% on a $550,000 loan amount –

What is REALLY happening is that the seller is contributing $12,819.24 (almost 2% of the sales price) to pay for a two-year monthly savings AS-IF your interest rate was 5% for the first year and 6% for the second.  Thinking you have a lower interest rate makes you feel good, right!

From a marketing standpoint that sounds a lot better than a 2% sales price reduction, doesn’t it?

BUT, since that money seems to be available from the seller, let’s see how else it could be applied.

1. Take the money as a price reduction and borrow $12,819.24 less and save about $85/mo.  So, you would owe $12,819.24 less to the bank AND save an additional $10,200 in payments in the next ten years.  Clearly, that does not sound as exciting as 5% and 6% rates for two years!
2. Take it as a closing cost credit and reduce your cash-to-close by $12,819.24.  Why should you wait two years to save that money when you can have it all now?!  You can apply it to your payments on your own if you like rather than have it be dictated by the seller.
3. Use the money to PERMANENTLY buydown your rate to 6.375% for the life of the loan.  You would DOUBLE your savings in under 10 years and continue to save over $225/mo for the life of the loan!

Clearly those options might not SOUND as good to you but the REAL benefits are more advantageous than the marketing “sizzle” of the “2-1 buydown”.

Many condo listings disclose that they will only accept cash or Conventional financing.  Often the only reason FHA is omitted is because the listing agent is not aware of the little known fact that we can finance the purchase with an FHA loan even if the condo project is not approved.

Good News!  The condo project does NOT have to be pre-approved by FHA.  We can qualify individual units for FHA financing using the same full review process we use on 3% down Conventional financing.  

It is very likely that any condo unit that qualifies for Conventional financing can also be funded by FHA.

This is VERY handy for buyers with lower credit scores and higher debt ratios that Conventional financing will not allow. That makes this an invaluable option for first time home buyers that need to find a home in lower price ranges.
