What Do You Actually Need to Get a #mortgage?: Fannie Mae...



What Do You Actually Need to Get a #mortgage?:

Fannie Mae recently released their “What do consumers know about the #mortgage Qualification Criteria?” Study. The study revealed that Americans are misinformed about what is required to qualify for a #mortgage when purchasing a home. Here are three takeaways:

* 59% of Americans either don’t know (54%) or are misinformed (5%) about what FICO score is necessary
* 86% of Americans either don’t know (59%) or are misinformed (25%) about what an appropriate Back End Debt-to-Income (DTI) ratios is
* 76% of Americans either don’t know (40%) or are misinformed (36%) about the minimum down payment required

To help correct these misunderstandings, let’s take a look at the latest Ellie Mae Origination Insight Report, which focuses on recently closed (approved) loans.

Your dream home may already be within your reach. http://www.simplifyingthemarket.com/2016/01/21/what-do-you-actually-need-to-get-a-mortgage/?a=242769-4eb2112ad1caac540e99a63dd199d5ed ❤️ #share #mortgage
