FHA commissioner David Stevens ANNOUNCES CREDIT POLICY CHANGES.

FHA will Require Appraiser Independence In Loan Origination as of Feburary 15,2010.

Ft. Lauderdale Mortgage Originators will not be able to order the appraisal on your home loans any more. FHA provides new guidelines on ordering appraisals for FHA-insured mortgages and reaffirms existing policy on FHA requirements regarding appraiser independence and geographic competence. Mortgage brokers and commission based lender staff are prohibited from ordering appraisals. FHA does not require the use of Appraisal Management Companies or other third party providers, but does require that lenders take responsibility to assure appraiser independence. While FHA’s existing policies regarding appraiser independence are consistent with the Home Valuation Code of Conduct (HVCC), FHA will adopt language from the Code to ensure full alignment of FHA and GSE standards.

Bottom Line is if you are trying to Finance or Refinance your Ft. Lauderdale Mortgage, make sure that you order your appraisal by or before the 15th or else you risk paying alot more. Feel free to comment or email me with any questions or concerns.

Hi all,

We added a great new partner here at Fort Lauderdale Loan FHA. He is the top Real Estate Agent in the Plantation area. He specializes in getting the hard deals done. A few weeks back, I met with him because we are always looking for A+ professional realtors.

I challenged him and he has surpassed his expectations and mine. He currently has over 58 Listings.  58 different families are currently trusting him to sell their properties.  Would you? You wont know until you speak to him directly. Now I could post all 58 listings here or… you could just go this site to view them all.  http://jose.valuedagent.com/

Either way he is great. Whether you are buying or selling in the Plantation area he is definitely on the short list of realtors that you can count on. Thanks for all your contributions Jose. Feel free to contact him at 954-668-7038.
