Real Estate Tips
Buyers Remorse >First Time Loans
Most first-time buyers can qualify for a mortgage loan, but they may need help from parents to make the down payment or closing costs on their home. There are loan programs that minimize the down payment and closing costs for first-time buyers. These programs usually require that 3 to 5 percent of the purchase price come from the buyers' funds, not from a loan or gift. Most lenders ask for the last three months' bank records. The borrower will be asked to reveal the origin of any large deposits. If the money comes from the homebuyer's parents, the lender may not consider those funds when qualifying the buyers.
Parents who are planning to help their children finance a home should transfer any funds several months before the house-hunting process begins. If it is a loan rather than a gift, a formal re-payment agreement should be drawn up between parents and children to eliminate potential misunderstandings or future complications with either estate.

By The Way!
Why is that immigrants to the United States succeed and become self-made millionaires at four times the rate of native-born Americans on a per-capita basis? and the simplest reason of all, aside from the fact that they had to have more ambition to leave their home to come here, is that they come here with a blank slate...is they come here, and they say, "Now, I'm starting all over from nothing." Many of them come here penniless, with no friends, no contacts, no ability to speak English. They have no education. They have no background. they start with nothing but a blank slate. and what they do is they say, "Now, I'm in the land of dreams. What is my dream?" (Brian Tracy). Does this resonate with you? it does with me! Now what is your dream?
Thank You. Lela
