The Fannie Mae HOMEPATH Loan Program guidelines are:
- 3% down
- No PMI
- No appraisal necessary
- 660 min Credit Score (call for more details...)

Think about this for a minute folks: $8k for First Time Home Buyers Tax Credit, 3.5% of purchase price for closing cost and/or new equipment and a rate that’s about 1% lower than norm due to Fed MBS purchasing program. That’s a gift of around $18,500 from our Government just to buy a $300,000 home compared to any other time in our history!

If you have been waiting and wondering when a good time to buy will be, NOW IS IT!!! We only have a few more months until ALL of these programs end and these INCREDIBLE savings will be history.
