www.lasvegasmtg.com report: FHA Loan Limits will be drastically cut back for Clark County, Nevada (Las Vegas, Henderson, North Las Vegas, Boulder City) starting October 1, 2011. Currently FHA loan limits for Clark County, Nevada is $400,000.00, but this will be reduced to $271,050.00, a reduction of $128,950.00!
In previous changes with FHA Mortgage Insurance or loan limits the rule has been if the property was assigned a FHA case number prior to the FHA rule change date then it would fall under the old guidelines.
What does this all mean? Qualified home buyers that are seeking a FHA loan to purchase a home over the $271,050.00 loan limit set for October 1, 2011 will need to enter under contract and have the FHA Case Number assigned to the property prior to the change date.
Many currently qualified FHA home buyers that are wanting to purchase higher priced home after October 1, 2011 will be required to have 20% down or a 720 or higher credit score for PMI to be able to have less down payment because FHA will not be available for there home loan option.
Currently FHA 30 year rates are a .5% better pricing then a conventional 30 year loans due all of the pricing hits that Conventional loans have. Read my blog regarding "The untold Truth about Par Rate" to see all of the factors that drives conventional loan rates up.
If you are a potential buyer in this market price range time is running out for you to use the FHA loan option. What would you want to do? Only need 3.5% down or have to pay 20% down and have higher interest rates? Call Me Now at 702-271-2659 to see what your options are now and what they will be after October 1, 2011.
