Orange County NY : FHA loan limit is less than property amount. What are our options?
We are interested in buying home in Orange County NY. Given that FHA loan limit is 440K for Orange county and the homes we have been like are in 600K-700K range, it looks like FHA is ruled out. We are looking to make a downpayment of max 5%. Based on what I have read - typical conventional loan requirement is 10- 20% for downpayment? Are there other mortgage alternatives? We have Excellent credit score. by APEEDKS from stamford, Connecticut. Apr 18th 2013

What is you income? Will you qualify for a mortgage of this amount without paying 20% down. Loans are based on Income + Credit which effect qualifying. You will have to be under 40% of you income and current debt per month plus PMI coverage.

In that loan amount range, almost everyone will want 20% down. If you poke around enough, you WILL find just 10%. Unfortunately, 5% down simply will not cut it in that price range.
