Tom S asked:


I heard that during the Clinton administration, the Democrat-run Congress forced mortgage companies to give sub-prime mortgages, and also that borrowers would not be required to have social security numbers (allowing illegal aliens to get mortgages). Does anyone have a reference for these claims?

Zero Down Mortgage Loans - Understanding No Money Down Loans

Carrie Reeder asked:


In many housing markets across the country, the increase in home prices does not match the average household income. Hence, many people are unable to save money for a down payment. Ideally, mortgage companies prefer applicants to have a down payment of at least 5%, in addition to paying closing costs. Unfortunately, this is an unrealistic expectation. Thus, many homebuyers are taking advantage of zero down mortgage loans.

How Do Zero Down Loans Works?

Fortunately, many mortgage companies recognize how difficult it is to save for a down payment. Thus, some lenders have created special loan programs that make it possible to buy a home with little out-of-pocket expense. Ordinarily, if you had a down payment for a home, you would obtain better rates. However, because of low mortgage rates, you do not need a down payment to secure a good rate.

There are many options for a zero down home loan. For starters, some mortgage lenders offer an 80/20 loan. This involves offering a mortgage for 80% of the asking price, and a 20% home equity loan for the remaining balance. This option is very useful; moreover, homebuyers avoid paying private mortgage insurance.

Additionally, homebuyers may obtain a mortgage loan for 103% of the asking price. This is beneficial because it allows new homebuyers to afford down payment and a portion of the closing fees.

How to Find a No Money Down Mortgage Loan?

If you are hoping to buy a home with zero down, contact a mortgage broker. There are various loan programs that offer zero down loan options. However, you must be willing to look for them. If using a mortgage broker, the company can help you find a lender.

Brokers have access to loans offered by private lenders, government programs, sub prime lenders, etc. Meeting the qualification for a zero down mortgage will vary according to lenders. Some lenders require good credit, no bankruptcies, etc. Meanwhile, other lenders are eager to offer no money down loans to people with less than perfect credit. Working with a mortgage broker can make your dreams of homeownership a reality.
