Study Notes
Chapter 10 Quiz - Key Concepts
- Veteran Home Purchases (Cal-Vet): A Cal-Vet purchase uses a land contract, not a deed of trust or mortgage, as the state holds title initially.
- FHA Loan Assumption: A fee, called an assumption fee, is paid when a buyer assumes an FHA loan. This fee is separate from origination fees or discount points.
- Home Ownership Costs: Amortization isn't a cost of home ownership but rather a structuring method for payments. Deferred maintenance, depreciation, and loss of potential investment return are costs.
- Lender Concerns: Lenders are least concerned with a borrower's part-time income, and more interested in total liabilities, overtime income, and credit history.
- VA-Guaranteed Loans: A distinguishing feature is the absence of required down payments (though, some down payments might still apply for large loan amounts).
Loan Rescission Rights
- Rescission Rights Vary: Rescission rights differ based on loan purpose (e.g., purchase money loan vs. business loan) under specific acts.
- Van Burens: The Van Burens wouldn't have the right of rescission because their loan is a purchase money loan. Their original loan is connected to purchasing a home, not a business.
- Harrisons: The Harrisons did not have the right of rescission, as their loan was related to financing a business, not their residence.
Mortgage Loan Details
- Amortization: In fully amortized mortgages, the interest portion of the payment decreases while the principal portion increases over time.
- Loan Types and Risks: Different types of loans have varying degrees of concern on the part of the lender. Cal-Vet loans are less risky (in general) than conventional loans for lenders. This is partially because of government backing on some loan types.
- Downpayments: Conventional loans typically require a downpayment that's lower than on other loans types. This means they carry a greater risk for the lender.
- Importance of Loan Terms: Various factors like loan structures, terms and conditions, and type of property have to be considered to determine risk.
Applying for a Residential Loan
- Loan Fees: Appraisal fees aren't considered part of the total finance charge and don't have to be disclosed as a part of the finance charge.
- VA Loan Appraisals: A VA loan is not guaranteed for more than the appraised value. A buyer must pay the difference in sale price and appraisal, or cover the shortfall in cash.
- Lender Considerations: Lenders least consider a borrower's ability to access financial assistance in other sectors while lenders are also concerned with the present value of the property they are selling.
- Disclosure Statement: Real estate brokers who provide loan services are obligated to provide a broker disclosure statement to borrowers.
- Conventional Loan Risk: Conventional loans pose greater risk for lenders since they are not backed by a government agency, which means they lack the same protections.
