    I have yet to find a non-qm lender that will do this loan in an active Chapter 13. ACRA and Deephaven seem to entertain it, but I do not have high hopes. A6 laws make cash out fairly problematic in Texas. The few times I have done this type of loan I have had the borrower properly get the BK dismissed, and then did the cash out at Oaktree.

    September 19, 2024 at 4:45 pm in reply to: What Credit Scoring Model Do Mortgage Lenders Use

    The FICO 8 model used by credit card companies is more critical of high balances on revolving credit lines. Since revolving credit is less of a factor when it comes to mortgages, the FICO 2, 4 and 5 models have proven to be reliable when evaluating candidates for a mortgage.

    An important update from the Department of Educaton is below. Unfortunately, repayment options are paused in many instances while they work through the SAVE Program.

    Illinois has similar property taxes. It is safe to say, more often than not, the taxes are nor commensurate with the property value. It is unfortunate.

    Do you feel the state of New Jersey and individual counties provide adequate social services and infrastructure to compensate for the higher taxes?

    It means they will not foreclose during this time frame and will work with the Veteran to find solutions to retain the home. I assume modifications and silent second mortgages will play a large part in remediation.

    Yes, they report to all 3 bureaus. The cost is minimal.

    I usually have them do Experian Boost as well.

    I still like Credit Strong quite a bit. There are also a number of services that can help provide aged tradelines. I will send you the contact information.

    I agree, so many people with scores below 500 right now. I have used this service to bump their scores over 500 so we can at least get them qualified. We can work on really repairing their credit after they are safely in their home.
