Arizona Jumbo Mortgage Financing: Signs of Life

May 22, 2009

I wouldn’t exactly say the Jumbo mortgage market is hopping right now. If you currently have a jumbo loan and want to refinance and get cash out – it is going to be somewhat close to impossible to get done.

Especially if you live in a “declining market”.

And keep in mind that it is the lenders definition of “declining market” so if you call me up and tell me there are bidding wars going on in Queen Creek right now – I will agree with you but sadly let you know that the Lender hasn’t found that out yet.

So, basically – Jumbo mortgage refinance and trying to get cash out = impossible very difficult.

If you just want to refinance your jumbo loan, it will be easier than if you wanted to refinance and get cash out – but still difficult. First, you will have the “appraisal issue” (and  you know how talking about HVCC makes me feel) and then when your appraisal states that your home has lost value, you are probably going to run into mortgage insurance “challenges”.

So – Jumbo mortgage refinance without trying to get cash out = difficult to very difficult.

And now for the good news.

I had a Account Executive in my office this week and he was from one of the large national banks handing out product sheets for their jumbo products.

I haven’t seen an AE in my office talking about Jumbo Products in over a year.

And here are the basics if you want a jumbo loan without sounding too much like a mortgage-guy-numbers-jockey:

But now you have a general idea of what the Jumbo mortgage market looks like in Arizona right now. They are still loaning out money to people with good credit, good jobs and want get a great deal on a house (and take advantage of the 8000 tax credit, and, and, and…)

IMPORTANT MORTGAGE DISCLOSURES:

When inquiring about a mortgage on this site, this is not a mortgage application. Upon the completion of your inquiry, we will work hard to match you with a lender who may assist you with a mortgage application and provide mortgage product eligibility requirements for your individual situation.

Any mortgage product that a lender may offer you will carry fees or costs including closing costs, origination points, and/or refinancing fees. In many instances, fees or costs can amount to several thousand dollars and can be due upon the origination of the mortgage credit product.

When applying for a mortgage credit product, lenders will commonly require you to provide a valid social security number and submit to a credit check . Consumers who do not have the minimum acceptable credit required by the lender are unlikely to be approved for mortgage refinancing.

Minimum credit ratings may vary according to lender and mortgage product. In the event that you do not qualify for a credit rating based on the required minimum credit rating, a lender may or may not introduce you to a credit counseling service or credit improvement company who may or may not be able to assist you with improving your credit for a fee.
