I have heard there is a new 3% down program for home purchase. Does that mean, I can refinance my conventional loan with up to 97% LTV? If not, what is the max LTV I can have? by sam_caucha515 from Aliso Viejo, California. Jan 12th 2015
What are you looking to accomplish with the refinance? If you would like, give me a call and I can go over your options. Contact info is on my page.
Yes you can refinance up to 97% conventional with MI or pay the MI upfront and have lower payments. The MAX LTV is 97% Contact me if you have any questions.
You can do 97% rate and term
YES, you can refinance at 97%... If your conventional loan is older that June 2009, and it is owned by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, you can even be underwater.
Conventional refinancing is available to the 97% LTV, however the 3% down is for first time home buyers only.. Also, if your loan is HARP eligible, you can refinance even if your above 97%.. even as high as 200% LTV.. I'm a Broker here in Scottsdale AZ and I only lend in Arizona.

You need to make sure that it will serve your needs. The answer is that you likely can refinance at 97% conventional. The program is designed for a 1st time buyer and one person on the loan is supposed to be a 1st time buyer but I believe there is an exception for a refinance. An FHA loan may serve you better with typically lower rates and now lower monthly mortgage insurance than on the conventional 97% loan. There are other factors to consider and I would be happy to help and I am at (866) 385-1650 and I am in CA also.
Yes you can, and it does not matter what type of loan you are in currently as long as you qualify for a conventional loan of course. Contact a local loan officer and have them provide you all of your loan options to see what best fits your needs. Best wishes, Sean
You can go up to 975 on a refinance if you do not qualify for a HARP loan and your loan is owned by Fannie Mae. Freddie Mac will be adding this in a couple of months.
97% not 975, jeesh I will get this right eventually. :)
