Kentucky USDA and Rural Housing Underwriting Update for November 2012


Kentucky USDA and Rural Housing Underwriting Update for November 2012

This website is not an Government Agency, and does not officially represent the HUD, VA, USDA or FHA or any other government agency. 

1)  Kentucky USDA loans and rural housing underwriting  is tightening up!  You are going to see us asking for more to make sure we have it to respond to USDA when they ask for it.  We don’t want to be caught shorthanded on these deals and be stuck waiting to get them closed (neither do you!) so to be reactive to the changes with USDA, you will find that we are conditioning for more than we used to.  To help us be on the ball with your USDA loans, be sure to include the following:

1)  30 days most recent paystubs showing a YTD amount

2)  VOE’s if the borrower is NOT employed in the same position for more than 2 years or the borrower has OT, Bonus or commission income.  We will recommend Written VOE’s   for the purpose of showing the borrower is in the same line of work!

3)  Assets – if your 1003 shows bank information and asset information then you must provide the most recent 2 statements to prove this information

4)  Collections & open judgments must show on your liabilities.  Please provide an LOX for all Derogatory credit  this LOX should show that the circumstances were temporary in  nature, beyond the applicant’s control and resolved to the best of their ability

5)  VOR‘s are required for all USDA loans.  USDA has been consistently requesting this information in the past 30 days.  For files above 640, a VOR will suffice.  For files under 640,     we will require 12 months cancelled checks.  If a VOR is not available due to the borrower living with family,  an LOX will be needed

6)  Paystubs for all income in the household regardless if they are on the loan or not. Must be most recent and 30 days worth to help determine actual income

7)  Garnishments or child support shown and if paying it we will require the court order. If receiving it, we need a 12 month history of receipt and court order

8)  W-2’s for the past 2 years for ALL jobs

9)  Tax returns if self employed or unreimbursed expenses are shown

10)  YTD P&L if self employed prepared by tax preparer and signed by borrower.

11)  1980-21 signed by borrowers

12)  Fully executed purchase contract

Remember – we cannot send a file to RD without an appraisal!!!  The appraisal must state that the property meets HUD Handbooks 4150.2 and 4905.1.

2)  Turn times for USDA in several states are extreme.  We understand your frustration with the delays and want to express to you that we are watching diligently for return commitments to push your files to closing.  If you could review your USDA loans with us and insure that all conditions are met….except for the CC…we can expedite these files ASAP when the commitment comes in.  If your file has been with us for over 30 days, please update the paystubs as ours will have expired!!!

Thank you for your attention and please let me know if you need me!

DEFERRED STUDENT LOANS AND DEBT RATIO CALCULATIONS  for Kentucky Rural Housing Loans and USDA Loans in KY

 

RHS Student Loan DTIs

 

Due to the variable nature of some student loan plans, RHS is standardizing the process of including them in the debt ratio. All student loans will now require documentation verifying the current payment due.

 

For student loans which are Conventional, Fixed Payment, and/or Deferred:

  • Account statements will be reviewed and fixed monthly payment will be used with no adjustments.
  • Deferred student loans not in repayment will use an estimated payment of 1% of the loan balance unless a documented fixed payment from the loan servicer can be provided.

 

For student loans with Income Based Repayment plans:

  • If the current payment is greater than $100, that payment can be used.
  • If the current payment is less than $100 and total loan balance is greater than $10,000, a minimum $100 payment must be included in the debt ratio.
  • If the current payment is less than $100 and total loan balance is less than $10,000, then the current payment may be used

 

Please note that documentation of an Income Based Repayment agreement must be provided. Payments of $0 are not eligible to be used in the debt ratio. Verifications are only valid for 120 days, 180 days for new constructions

 

DEFERRED STUDENT LOANS AND DEBT RATIO CALCULATIONS

. A 100% 30 year fixed interest rate loan with flexible credit and qualifying ratios along with other benefits, will open the door to a new market and new growth possibilities.

We look forward to a long and productive relationship this affordable housing product to the people of Kentucky and to a strong partnership in the Kentucky GRH Program.

For the USDA Rural Development Single Family Housing Guaranteed Loan Program, deferred student loans should be included in the debt ratio calculations for Guaranteed Loans regardless of the deferment period.

Rural Development RD Instruction 1980-D, section 1980.345(c)(1) states:

“Long term obligations include those obligations . . . with a remaining repayment period of more than 6 months and other shorter term debts that are considered to have a significant impact on repayment ability.”

Deferred student loans are long term obligations with remaining repayment periods of more than 6 months, and they must be included as part of the

applicant‟s recurring monthly debt obligations. If the credit report does not reflect a monthly payment due at the end of the deferment period, the lender may request a copy of the applicant‟s payment letter, or utilize the industry standard of estimating student loan payments as 1% of the loan balance. Therefore a deferred student loan balance of $12,000 should have a corresponding monthly payment of $120 if no estimated payment is verified by the lender.

This guidance applies to all manually
