FHA qualifying problem, need help

Have you checked with Movement Mortgage?

This sounds like it could be a lender override. Meaning that even though you were DU approved that particular lender didn't accept it, which is their choice. Typically you go to underwriting right away and the inderwriter addresses that at the onset and not at the end of a transaction. Not being a party to the whole transaction I must speculate. If you would like a second opinion based upon fact and not speculation please contact me. (707) 338-2864. Ehoffman@cmgfi.com. Also only if this is a California transaction. Your address says NC but the initial info said Glendale ca

My phone number is (707) 328-2864. Typo on initial response

Typically, this is not a problem.. but I see situations like this all the time.. inexperienced loan officer only knows how to say yes... until it's turned down.. The reality is that by dealing with a mortgage broker who deals with many different lenders, can do this deal easily.. As others stated.. FHA does not lend money.. they only insure loans against default. the lenders, or those with the $$$ will oftentimes add their own guidelines above what FHA calls for.. it's these "Overlay's" that makes lending different, one lender to the next.. and it sounds like you ran into a lender overlay.. but by dealing with a mortgage broker, it's like shopping 20 different lenders at one stop.. The more lenders, the more lending options, and the greater likelihood your loan scenario will be approved.. The best advice I can give you is to contact a LOCAL mortgage broker and apply with them. Once they see your complete loan profile, they will be better equipped to advise you properly. Also, by applying with your LOCAL Broker, you have an advantage because he's familiar with local customs and works with many lenders with each one offering a different type of lending program. This is unlike the local bank which typically only has a few lending programs. The more lenders, the more lending options, and the more likely your scenario will be accepted.. Plus, the broker is experienced in seeking out the best loan terms for your particular scenario, and he has lower overhead which typically results in lower rates and fees than most of the larger lenders..

I would recommend applying with a different lender, and tell them your story. The lender must have had internal overlays!! Very frustrating I can understand that!
