I will be quick to lay out my situation, and I am curious if there are any FHA Manual Underwriters who can do loans in Phoenix, AZ. I’m still working with my broker now but it’s been several months and

still no closing. I’ve refinanced FHA in the past with no issues, and this time, it almost feels like the banks are not approving these loans, even though they are advertising historically low rates.

1. I have had stable employment for two years, coming up in August. With my existing employer, my employment type changed from 1099 to a W2 in April 2019.

2. I have never missed a mortgage payment nor applied for COVID-related deferments.

3. My DTI isn’t the best, but my income has increased since the last time I did an FHA refinance several years ago. My FICO is over 680.

4. The purpose of the refinance is to merge my primary and secondary (HELOC) into a fixed low rate. I do not know what the max LTV ratios are but I’m pretty close to the max if it is 80%. However, I can bring cash to close if required.

5. Increase in income, stable employment, no missed payments on my mortgage EVER, and Quicken denied my refinance and would not tell me why a week before closing. I told them I’m never doing business with them again. I tried working with Northstar, Interactive, and now United Wholesale Mortgage, and it’s been literally three months and still no closing.

Is there something going on with FHA refinances right now that I’m not aware of? United said they are working on a manual underwritten FHA refinance but I have gotten absolutely no feedback in a week and am beginning to think the deal may be dead. If I don’t hear an update by the end of this

week, I’m going to pull it and place it somewhere else, unless there is a reason why this can’t be done that isn’t being disclosed to me.

Am I missing something here? Do I just have the worst luck in the world or is there a bigger problem brewing?

PROS AND CONS ON BUYING VERSUS RENTING A HOME

Impact Of Credit Card Balance On Credit Scores

When you are considering a remodel or renovation of your home then you must weigh the options. What will it cost ? How will you pay for it? How much will the remodel improve the property? What is the property value before you begin the remodel? What will the property value be after the renovation/remodel is completed? These are good questions to ask and know, in most situations

you don’t want to use your equity to remodel and then find the property is not worth any more than before, doing this you have just realized your equity position is gone. Before the project begins you must consider where the money is coming from, most people don’t have money just laying around so a new mortgage or another mortgage as a 2nd mortgage may be considered.

We live in NC and filed a Chapter 7 bankruptcy on our business, and a Chapter 11 on the personal side after COVID closed our business. Both my husband and I had upper 700’s for credit before. Ch11 was confirmed on Feb ’21, and the final decree was issued on 11/12/21. We have a home mortgage

and HELOC, as well as our SBA loan debt repayment, which we’d like to roll into one mortgage with a refi. The SBA loan repayment will be repaid by the end of 2022, but there is no penalty to repay early if we could refinance. Are we just out of luck with a refi and have to wait 2 years or is there any option to do a refinance now with a decent rate?
