Florida has three different types of down payment assistance program for homebuyers including the HERO DPA home purchase program. Like to thank Dianne Burnett for coordinating Gustan Cho Associates dba of NEXA Mortgage to be able to offer down payment assistance to Florida homebuyers.

I was on a call, not sure which one where Dianne was talking about assignments. Commented, stating some lenders allow assignments, and buyers can close a loan with assignments. Did I hear it right? Like years ago, before Obama, my husband was flipping.
He helped a friend out, and we did some work. The buyer did a conventional loan. I did not do the loan. We did back-to-back closings,
Assignments have really gone crazy here. So, the state made some new rules because of it.
I personally think one was getting taken advantage of.
So I am asking that the form you provided us from Utah is awesome.
Can one do an assignment on a standard conventional loan? If so, I figured it would be just a few investors. How do I find them?
I am seeing opportunities with our new products. Where I may get a chance to get a foot in the door. My old-school investors, are now running investment groups and doing classes and things with them. A few of them are on a national level.
I will talk to you later about that and a few other things.
I am terrible at email.

Absolutely 💯. I am a strong believer of positive criticism and not compliments. That’s how you learn and get better. A lot of people can’t take criticisms. With compliments most people take it to a new arrogance level. However, compliments are well served for people who deserve compliments. Kevin DeLory and Eddy G Perez Jr. Deserve respect and compliments for setting the foundation of EPM. There’s a reason why a mortgage company produces great employees like Christian Sorenson. It’s folks like Christian Sorenson that make a great company. It’s due to a strong foundation. Great leadership makes a great company and differentiates from the mediocre competition. Competition never sleeps. Thanks for everything you do Mr. Perez and Mr. DeLory. Giving us loan officers the opportunity to do tough loans gives the dream of homeownership become a reality for hard working Americans. You guys are the true silent heroes who are appreciated and not taken for granted. Love all your inspirational videos, sir. Don’t stop being you. Never try to miss Mr. DeLory’s videos no matter how hectic my day is.

Money is not wealth. Money comes and goes. However, you need to realize how many millionaires lost everything they have and had to restart over. Wealth is relationships. You cannot take that away. However you need two people who are committed to make the relationship work.

If the FHA Title I loan is under $7,500, the title I loan is considered an unsecured personal renovation loan. However, any Title I loans greater that $7,500 up to $25,000 is considered a second mortgage and the lien is placed on the house behind the first mortgage.

That’s it, I’m looking to refinance. Initially quoted me a 30-year fixed at 6.5% in March, but when the underwriters got through with me it was a 30-year interest-only with 8.25%. Not happy! Nevertheless, my lender – LendingTree.com- grants returning customers a refinance at NO costs.
The general situation is here. Any advice appreciated.
I owe CC debt approx $60K (AVG. APR 6.5%)
I have Interest only Home loan (8.25% $366K, 100% financing)
I earn 7K/month
Net Current monthly liabilities $6,200 (cc payments, mortgage, insurance, etc)
I have cash of $20K
Credit score 680What to do with the cash? Am I to pay off some of my CC debt to boost my credit score or make a down payment to get a better mortgage? How about buying points, and which way is the lending market looking to go within the next 6 months?
