Wait 90 Days No More on Flip Purchases!
Why wait 90 days to purchase a home that was auctioned at a Trustee Sale
because some lenders have a 90 day exclusion overlay on their purchase
loans? There are now lenders in the marketplace that are offering
conventional loans for purchases of foreclosed flip homes only after 30
days from the Trustee Sale date. The 90 day rule was adopted by HUD to
slow the tide of homes that were traded shortly after foreclosure sales.
The problem was evaluating the true value of the homes and the 90 day
cooling off period helped in this respect. Now, the market is easier to
define and a 30 day wait overlay is sufficient. We shall see other
changes as we enter into a more normalized real estate market and the
loans that go with that.
