3 THE PERFECT LOAN PACKAGE FIRST MORTGAGE WHY deliver a Perfect loan package? 1. Accelerate the Loan Process Get to Underwriting faster with a fully packaged file Get answers quickly faster turn times Get clean approvals with reduced document suspense conditions/items 80% of conditions lately have been due to missing documentation, letters of explanations, poorly packaged files Get to docs faster with less Prior to Doc conditions Get to funding faster with less Prior to Funding conditions 2. Increase Operational Productivity/Efficiency and Reduce Costs Increase Operational Resources (UW, Docs, Funders) With cleaner files, the Operations team can handle more volume which means increased productivity, faster turn time, faster service Improve efficiency and reduce processing costs Eliminate babysitting loan files - focus on bringing in new loans

4 WHAT is a Perfect loan package? Good Preparation / YOU tell the Story 1. Documentation / Letters of Explanations 2. Back up / Provide samples NEVER: 1. Use short cuts when it comes to documentation 2. Let the UW tell/finish your story *Underwriting always reserves the right to question, request, or add additional documentation requirements. The more you document and tell the story the less room you leave for an underwriter to question and finish your story for you* Non-Traditional Credit Non Traditional Credit vs. Insufficient Credit Nontraditional Credit Borrowers Borrowers with insufficient trade lines to merit a fico score. May also be used to augment thin-files or files where a credit score was generated based on just a few tradelines. Nontraditional credit reports may not be used to enhance any poor credit history on a traditional credit report. Insufficient Credit Borrowers Borrowers with no credit references, or borrower s who only have non-preferred references (see Group 2 references on next slide)

5 Non-Traditional Credit Non Traditional Credit - Borrowers w/ No Fico Scores or Limited Tradelines Provide at least three (3) credit references rated at least 12 months. At least 1 reference must be from Group 1 (G1 references should be exhausted before using G2 as G1 is more indicative of a borrower s future housing payment performance.) Borrower s with NO G1 references will be looked at as Insufficient Credit borrowers: Group 1: Rental Housing Payment or Utilities (Gas, Electricity, Water, Land line home phone, cable TV). If renting from family member, provide cancelled checks for documentation. Group 2: Insurance coverage (Auto, medical, life, renters), Cell Phone, Internet services, Child Care payments, School Tuition, Retail Stores (Department, Furniture, Appliances, Specialty Stores, Rent-to-Own), 12 month savings by regular deposits with NO NSF s, Auto leases, Personal loan, Storage Units, etc. Prefer using verification through Credit Bureaus using Nontraditional Mortgage Credit Report (NTMCR). If NTMCR is impractical or unavailable, obtain independent verification of trade references. Use public records from state, county or city records. Use published address or telephone number for that provider/creditor don t rely solely on information provided by the applicants Provide landlord information such as Name, Phone number to verify rental history. All references from individuals should be backed up with most recent 12 months cancelled checks. Non-Traditional Credit cont d Rental references from management companies may be used in lieu of 12 months cancelled checks. Various service providers now available who develop bill payment history as well as scoring FHA allows it for borrowers with no or little traditional credit. Evaluating Non Traditional Credit Borrowers A satisfactory credit history, at least 12 months in duration includes: No history of delinquency on rental housing payments and other credits in last 12 months No collection accounts / court records reporting (other than medical) filed within the past 12 months Evaluating Insufficient Credit Borrower s (Borrower s w/no Credit References or having only tradelines shown on item #2 from previous slide): No collection accounts / court records reporting (other than medical) filed within the past 12 months Max DTI of 31/43% from owner occupant borrower s only Comp factors are not applicable for borrowers with insufficient credit - NO EXCEPTION 2 months PITI from own funds after closing Gift Funds not allowed as reserves

6 FMC new FHA overlays FICO'S 'UNDER' 620 Max DTI ratio of 46% - regardless of AUS (DO/LP) approval Homebuyer education/counseling certificate required Verification of rent/cancelled checks/bank statements to verify current housing payment history (exceptions may be granted for borrowers living with family) Letters of explanation for all inquiries in the last 90 days Zero late pays in the last 12 months regardless of AUS (DO/LP) approval FICO S OVER 620 Letters of explanation for all derogatory credit in the last 24 months Letters of explanation for all inquiries in the last 90 days FMC new FHA overlays cont d 'ALL' LOANS WITH AUS (DU/LP) APPPROVAL Declining credit profile in the last 12 months - borrower must provide letter of explanation on all derogatory credit and a verification of rent/cancelled checks/bank statements to verify current housing payment history Maximum DTI ratio with DO/LP approval: 50.0% with 3.5% down payment Maximum DTI ratio with DO/LP approval: 55.0% with 5% down payment Comps for property no more than 3 months old maximum (re-statement of current credit overlay) Compensating factors must be from HUD handbook 4155 (re-statement of current credit overlay) Max LTV for cash out refinances is capped at 85.0% regardless of the date of the case number assignment Manual underwriting guidelines of maximum DTI ratio of 46.0% and no derogatory credit in the last 12 months still in effect (re-statement of current credit overlay) Max DTI of 46% - regardless of AUS (DO/LP) approval

7 CREDIT Credit Reports (FHA/VA): For married couples with a non-borrowing spouse situation, make sure to run credit on the nonborrowing spouse to obtain debts only for DTI calculation (must have written authorization) Liens, Judgments, Collections: If there are liens, judgments or collections, and they re suppose to be paid off, document the source of funds used to pay those off. Deferred Student Loans (FHA): Provide deferment letter with minimum 12 month forgiveness from date of close of Escrow (FHA ONLY). Divorced Borrowers: Provide Divorce Decree with all schedules. DU may ask for less or none so look at the loan you re working on does it make sense to provide everything or just the page that says they re divorced or not at all? Bankruptcy: Provide Bankruptcy Petition and all Schedules as applicable (Schedules A & B) Provide the Bankruptcy discharge letter DU may not ask for it. Look at investor guidelines does it allow DU to UW BK and FC or does it refer them to a human UW? Every loan/borrower is different and UW will use the make sense approach does it make sense? Credit Red Flags Do recent inquiries suggest borrower is having problems finding an originator? Are there conflicting address references on the credit report, depository statements and/or employment documentation? Is there a pattern of increasing high balances on mortgage loans suggesting dependence on cash proceeds to subsidize income? Does the credit report show any recent mortgages which were likely originated as owner occupied? Does the credit report exclude evidence of undisclosed deed-in-lieu with verbiage such as P&L loss or settled accounts? If borrower is qualifying as an individual or married sole and separate, are the majority of the trade-lines individual vs. joint accounts? Are student loans deferred while the application shows seasoned active employment? For real estate investors, do the origination dates for the mortgages on the credit report show a history of mortgage activities over the past several years NOT including their primary residence?

8 ASSETS Bank Statements: Provide most recent 2 months bank statements with all pages for checking and savings accounts if applicable. Must be dated within 30 days of initial application. DU may ask for less so make sure you check the guidelines. Some investors now have overlays on top of DU meaning they require 2 months regardless of what DU asks for. New Bank Accounts: Provide documentation to support new bank account (opened within last 90 days) Retirement Accounts: Provide most recent 401K 60%) or other type of retirement statements PERS / STRS cannot use PERS/STRS for assets/reserves cannot draw till retirement Gift Letters: Provide fully executed Gift Letter signed by donor Provide donor s source of funds using a VOD, a copy of a bank statement, or copy of Cashiers check that references the donor Provide a paper trail of funds from donors account to borrower such as a cancelled check, bank wire transfer, gift check, validated deposit slip, evidence of receipt of funds from Escrow or an Attorney, etc. ASSETS Red Flags Does any depository account have a supporting average balance, but a recent opening date? Are liquid assets truly liquid? (Stock in closely-held corporations, partnerships, investments in mortgages or Notes receivable are NOT liquid assets) Do withdrawals for rent on the bank statements match the figure on the rental verification and application? Is the borrower s 401K from present employment? (If not, their current ability to save has not been demonstrated)

9 REFINANCES Provide copy of any mortgage coupon/s for all existing mortgages on subject property and any rentals Provide copy of current hazard insurance policy for subject property and any rentals. Provide copy of last County Tax Statement for subject property and any rentals Provide copy of rental agreement for subject property and for any properties not listed on schedule E of Tax Returns Do a property file on where they rent or property search by borrower to determine if they re on title. Sometimes they say they rent but they re really on title. May possibly be explained but try not to disguise it as something it is not. FHA Streamline Refinances: Provide copy of old loan Note (all pages) Provide copy of old loan Deed of Trust (Page 1 only) Provide Payoff Demand must show borrower is current VOM if payoff demand doesn t show the most recent month and show borrower is current MULTIPLE FHA PROPERTIES FHA allows applicants to have only one (1) FHA insured residence with the exception: 1. Relocations Due to work Moving to an area not within reasonable commuting distance 2. Increase in family size # of dependants increased and home doesn t meet the family s needs document increase in household Loan must be paid down to max 75% LTV 3. Vacating Jointly owned home Due to divorce, co-borrower is getting married 4. Non-occupying Co-borrower May buy own property even if they helped another applicant qualify for a home as a non-occupant co-borrower *An applicant cannot buy his/her own O/O if he/she owns another FHA property regardless of occupancy (unless it meets one of the above criteria). No reduction in balance required*

10 TITLE/OCCUPANCY Red Flags Check title for any items such as judgments, delinquent taxes, or support obligations that give evidence of questionable credit worthiness? On refinances, was the borrower recently added to title? Is another person going off title? Why? Does title show the current lien is owed to several parties with various percentage interests, thus indicating hard money financing? Did the borrower s landlord confirm that he/she is moving out? Is the borrower s present residence listed by the MSL? Is this considered a move up for the borrower? Is the subject property appropriate for the borrower in terms of household size and employment location? Is it more appropriate than the borrower s current housing situation? On any transaction other than a purchase, is the subject property vacant? LOE S Derogatory credit: Explain & provide supporting documentation on all derogatory credit such as collection accounts, charge offs, slow pays, liens, judgments. Eg., if poor credit can be isolated to a specific period of time, this may be an indication it was one-time occurrence due to a job loss or illness. Provide detailed explanation of the circumstances and third party verification to support the explanation. Even if items are old, still provide LOE to strengthen your loan. Inquiries: Explain all inquiries appearing on the credit report for the last 90 days Make sure that there are no new loans in process at the same time as our loan. Advising the borrower to just write no new loans resulted from these inquiries is considered fraud if new loans appear around the same time as ours. Those new obligations could result in higher DTI s causing the our loan to be non-saleable. Multiple jobs: Explain and provide documentation on work history to clarify income when multiple jobs appear in the loan file. A resume may be a good source. Multiple addresses: Explain multiple addresses on credit report and on loan documents

11 LOE S cont d Payment shock: Explain how borrower will budget for the payment when housing will increase more than 50% No bank accounts: Explain why borrower has chosen not to open any bank accounts Explain mattress money Cash on hand: Explain how the money was saved for the transaction and how long it took for them to save it Other names on bank account: Explain who they are. If you have access to 100% of all funds in the account please have them provide a signed letter to that affect. Non-married borrowers LOE on relationship between co-borrower s if not married LOE S cont d Large deposits: Explain and provide supporting documentation on any large deposits made into bank accounts Bankruptcy / Foreclosures: Explain the cause for the bankruptcy / foreclosure and provide documentation supporting the cause Motivation Letter: Explain your motivation for purchasing, or refinancing your home Commuting: Explain how the work commute will not be an issue Explain any unrealistic commuting distance and provide documentation if necessary *Even if DU doesn t ask for LOE s, still provide them to strengthen your file*

12 APPRAISAL Red Flags Is the appraisal more than 180 days old? Is the Market Conditions Addendum missing? Do the dated comps have higher sales prices than the recent comps? (Comps must be no more than 2-3 months old) Do the distant comps have higher sales prices than the closer comps? (Comps must be no more than 2-3 months old) Did the appraiser provide current listings or pending sales as comps to support the value? Are days on market (DOM) of comps consistent with the appraiser s range of marketing time? Do extended days on market show impaired marketability in the area? Has the appraiser addressed whether the subject is located in a neighborhood that has multiple foreclosures? (If so, a purchase price that appears to be below market may not be.) If the subject was acquired in the past few years, is appreciation since purchase reasonable? Formula: Current value LESS acquisition cost DIVIDED by acquisition costs = % of appreciation since purchase. Divide by years owned for annual appreciation Did the LO order the appraisal? Was the appraiser given a target value? OTHER Red Flags HUD 1: Is the sales price consistent among the purchase contract, the HUD-1, the appraisal, and the loan application? Do credits and concessions exceed the maximum allowed? If the sales price has increased from the original purchase contract, do amendments confirm legitimate upgrades? Are there unusual credits, concessions such as HOA fees, country club or other membership dues, maintenance fees, etc.,? Is the Realtors commission within industry standards, not higher or lower? Does the Realtors commission represent an even percentage of the sales price?

13 OTHER Red Flags PURCHASES: If the project has a website, are there any incentives not disclosed in the sales contract? Is the earnest money deposit from the borrower s account? Has the borrower been checked in the MERS system for recent undisclosed transactions? INVESTMENT PROPERTIES: Is there positive or neutral cash flow? If not, is there sufficient equity so the borrower has the incentive to honor the mortgage? Were the mortgages secured on the rental properties financed under specialty loan programs (Interest Only, Neg Ams, etc.)? If the borrower occupied as a tenant, are funds to close genuine? EMPLOYMENT Red Flags Are telephone calls to the borrower s place of employment answered on a cell phone instead of a landline? Is the business line answered with a business greeting instead of Hello? Eg., First Mortgage, how may I help you? Did the verbal employment verify job title as well as current employment status (full or PT) and start date? Does the verbal VOE confirm the job title shown on the application? Do current earnings evidence a declining trend?

14 OTHER TIPS Most common conditions: 1003 s: Missing Corrected 1003 s Missing Signed 1003 s Disclosures: Missing Up-front Disclosures See new requirements per FMC Bulletin #09-01 regarding up-front disclosures requirements Income/Employment documentation: YTD income, Missing VOE s, current pay stubs, Tax Returns, etc. Borrower identification: Missing Drivers license and SS cards Most common conditions: AUS (DU/LP) Provide corrected AUS that matches 1003, and all docs Released or assigned to FMC Corrected documents Corrected Purchase Contracts Corrected bid amounts Corrected 92900A s, 1003 s, AUS s Escrow Instructions Verifications Missing VOD s VOR s, VOM s Miscellaneous Expired Documents Missing LOE s in file Occupancy Certs Vesting DOCUMENTING INCOME FIRST MORTGAGE

15 INCOME Doc / Calc Wage Earners: W2 s for previous 2 years for all jobs Pay stubs covering last 30 days of employment for all jobs (must be dated within 30 days of initial application) DU may ask for less and in most cases we follow DU. However, look at your file is there enough income documentation or comp factors for the UW to hang their hat on? Do borrower s have good stable employment history? If borrower switched jobs, change careers, have 3 jobs, etc., you may still need to follow FHA/Fannie full doc requirements regardless of what DU says. Overtime/Bonuses OT and Bonus income will be considered effective income if received for 2 years and continuance can be verified. Calculate: Use the average monthly amount of the two years. If OT or Bonus represents 25% of their overall income, tax returns are required to determine if there are business expenses. Federal Tax Returns: If applicable based on program, provide most recent 2-3 years Federal Tax Returns with all applicable schedules signed in blue ink. When required, provide COMPLETE TAX RETURNS with ALL SCHEDULES! INCOME cont d Commission Borrowers Commission Income will be considered effective income if received for 2 years and continuance can be verified. Calculation of commission income varies depending on whether the borrower earns >25% of his/her income from commissions. Calculate: Use the average monthly amount of the two years. The following is the standard documentation requirement; DU may require less; UW may require more it all depends on individual scenarios Documentation requirement for Commission Income < 25%: 1 months most recent pay stubs showing YTD commission earnings 2 most recent year s W-2 s Documentation requirement for Commission Income > 25%: 2 most recent year s 1040 s including the following schedules Schedule A (if the borrower claims un-reimbursed business expenses) Form 2106 (if the borrower claims un-reimbursed business expenses) 2 most recent year s W-2s (or 1099s) Recent pay stub or VOE reporting YTD earnings

Non-taxable portion of income may be grossed up by 25% Military Income Military personnel may be entitled to different types of pay in addition to their base pay. Flight or hazard pay, rations, clothing allowance, quarter s allowance, and proficiency pay are acceptable sources of stable income, as long as documentation is provided to verify continuance in the future. Non-taxable portion of income may be grossed up by 25%

17 INCOME cont d GROSSING UP INCOME: Non-Taxable Income can generally be grossed up by 25% Only the non-taxable portion of the income can be grossed up Examples of non-taxable Income: Child Support Social Security Income Retirement Disability Child Benefit Eg., Social Security Income Sample Calculation: Line 20a (Tax Form) = $28,000 SS Benefit Line 20b (Tax Form) = $15,000 Taxable Amt 1. Calculate non-taxable amount: $28,000 - $15,000 = $13,000 non-taxable portion 2. Gross up non-taxable portion: $13,000 X 25% = $3, Determine total income, add non-taxable portion to SSI: $28,000 + $3,250 = $31, Determine monthly income, divide total by 12: $31,250 / 12 = $2, INCOME Quiz? SCENARIO GROSS UP INCOME: Mary Doe is widower and has a son John. John is 7 years old and receives a Social Security benefit due to the death of his father. Mary has a Social Security Award letter which indicates that John will receive benefits until he is 18 years old. Can this income be used in qualifying? YES!!! John will receive the benefits for another 11 years, which exceeds the 3-year requirement. Need Awards Letter & Birth Certificate to document using this income and you can gross it up!

18 RENTAL INCOME Rental Income: The agencies allow two options to calculate net rental income. If the income has been received for 2+ years, tax returns should be used. SCHEDULE (E) - Simple Calculation Rents Received LESS Total Expenses Net Income/Loss DIVIDED by 12 months Monthly Net Income/Loss *Exps incl mort int, utilities, ins, gardner, depreciation If tax return information is not available due to length of time the income has been received, lease agreements may be used in lieu of tax returns. $ $ $ FORMULA IF TAX RETURNS USED Bottom line from Schedule E (2yrs) $ Plus depreciation expense or depletion $ TOTAL $ Divided by 24 months Equals qualifying income or loss $ FORMULA IF LEASES ARE USED Income from Lease Agreement $ Multiplied by x.75 TOTAL $ Minus Mortgage Payment (PITI) ($ ) Equals qualifying income or loss $ SELF-EMPLOYED BORROWER Basic Business Structures Documentation Requirements: 1.
