Sub-Prime Home Lending Update: Bad Credit Loan News-
With several major sub-prime mortgage lenders going out of business, the focus has shifted to default prevention with banks across the country react to a heavy credit crunch. Recent reports found that consumers with bad credit loans were more likely to default on their home loan. According to Bridge Home Mortgages, "consumers that have adjustable rate payment option loans have lower credit scores because their 1st mortgage balance has exceeded the original loan amount with the added principal from the negative amortization."

How to Shop for Home Equity Loans and Credit Lines

Home equity loans, also known as second mortgages, are popular ways for home owners to draw equity from their homes for various reasons. There are two types of second mortgages: the home equity line of credit (HELOC) which is a variable rate loan, and a closed-end home equity installment loans (HEIL) which is generally a fixed rate loan with fixed monthly payments.

Home equity lines of credit typically offer interest-only payment options during the draw period (typically the first 5 - 10 years) that turns into a regular amortizing adjustable rate mortgage (ARM) during the repayment period. While there's typically no pre-payment penalty, many home equity credit lines do charge close out fees - fees charged for paying off and closing the line early (typically within the first 3 - 5 years). Closed-end home loans are lump-sum loans that require the borrower to immediately start making monthly amortizing principal and interest payments on the loan. They typically do not have pre-payment penalties or close out fees. Continue Reading Home Loan Article

Will Brokers and Lenders Running My Credit Affect My Credit Score When I am Shopping for a Home Equity Loan?

The myFICO web site explains it this way: Looking for a mortgage or an auto loan may cause multiple lenders to request your credit report, even though you're only looking for one loan. To compensate for this, the score ignores all mortgage and auto inquiries made in the 30 days prior to scoring. So, if you find a loan within thirty days, the inquiries won't affect your score while you're rate shopping. In addition, the score looks at your credit report for auto or mortgage inquiries older than 30 days. If it finds some, it counts all those inquiries that fall in a typical shopping period as just one inquiry when determining your score.

That doesn't leave you much room to shop, does it? However, there are ways around it. Before you even start talking to lenders, you should get a copy of your credit report from each of the three main credit reporting agencies:

Equifax: (800) 685-1111 - www.equifax.com

Experian (formerly TRW): (888) EXPERIAN (397-3742) - www.experian.com

Trans Union: (800) 916-8800 - www.transunion.com

Why are Negative Amortization Home Loans Under Scrutiny?

The Feds and numerous consumer groups have been pressing hard to mandate new lending laws for option arm and negative amortization loans. Their goal is to require additional loan disclosures for homeowners interested in these alternative home financing programs.

At this time mortgage brokers and lenders are required to present potential borrowers loan disclosures, but many people feel that it is not enough to educate consumers of the potential pitfalls.

Tips for Comparing Mortgage Lenders and Brokers Online

Searching for a home loan online is an excellent way to get started in the important process of finding the right home loan for your needs. Finding a lender or mortgage broker locally or finding a reputable lender nationwide is considerably easier if you utilize the internet.

Different brokers offer different products depending on their specialization. If you have great credit and an excellent source of income, then you should have an easy time shopping for a prime mortgage broker. You should investigate FHA and VA loans to see if you qualify and maybe even look at an option ARM lender.

Fixed Rate Principal and Interest. This involves structuring the mortgage so that interest is fully amortized over the scheduled re-payment terms. Each monthly payment pays a portion off accrued interest and the outstanding loan balance decreases with each payment.

Negative Amortization. This involves structuring the loan so that interest is not amortized over the term. Instead, the monthly payment is insufficient to pay off accrued interest and the outstanding loan balance therefore increases each month. At the end of the loan term, the borrower may owe more than the amount originally borrowed. With negative amortization, there will almost always be a balloon payment at the end of the loan.
