6 Sierra Lending Group LLC QM Changes Sierra Lending Group LLC will be as active as before with originating portfolio mortgage loans on both a wholesale and retail basis! The new QM regulations that have gone into effect on January 10th, have caused some changes to take place in our origination process. Here is a brief breakdown of these changes: The minimum loan amount is now $125, Effective immediately, the maximum broker compensation has been reduced from 2% to 1.75%. We will be sending out new broker compensation agreements to all of our mortgage brokers. There will be new initial disclosures added to the initial disclosure package including a list of HUD Approved Loan Counselors and a New Appraisal Disclosure. The appraisal must now be sent to the borrower at least 3 business days before the date of closing. There will be a new disclosure in the closing package labeled Verification of Repayment Ability that will be signed by the borrowers. The minimum credit score for our bank statement program is now 700. We will be qualifying the borrowers at 2% over the start rate on our ARM program. Our maximum debt ratio is 38%. We will be taking a somewhat closer look at our self-employed borrowers to make sure we understand the nature, source, and amount of income that is being derived from their business. There may be the need of some additional documentation required in order to document the income that will be used for underwriting purposes. We will be running a QM test at time of submission and at time of closing to make sure we are in compliance with the new regulations 5005 Riverway Drive Suite 460 Houston, Texas Fax
