Kentucky VA Loan Guide for Foreclosures, Bankruptcy, and short sales or deed in lieu.


 

Foreclosure and Bankruptcy Guidelines For Kentucky VA Home Mortgage Loans in 2019 and 2020


Follows guidelines provided for bankruptcies filed under straight liquidation (Chapter 7)
The fact that a home loan foreclosure in Kentucky  (or deed-in-lieu or short sale in lieu of foreclosure) exists in a borrower(s) history does not in itself disqualify the VA borrower for a Kentucky VA  loan. Develop complete information on the facts and circumstances of the foreclosure
You may disregard a foreclosure finalized more than 2 years from the date of closing. If the foreclosure was finalized within the last 1 to 2 years from the date of closing, it is probably not possible to determine that the borrower(s) is a satisfactory credit risk unless both of the following requirements are met:The borrower (s) has obtained consumer items on credit subsequent to the foreclosure and has satisfactorily made the payments over a continued period, and the foreclosure was caused by circumstances beyond the control of the borrower (s) such as unemployment; prolonged strikes, medical bills not covered by insurance, and so on, and the circumstances are verified.

If a foreclosure, deed in lieu, or short sale process is in conjunction with a bankruptcy, use the latest date of either the discharge of the bankruptcy or transfer of title for the home to establish the beginning date of re-established credit. If there is a significant delay in the transfer of title, the lender should contact the RLC of jurisdiction for guidance.

For a deed in lieu or short sale, develop complete information on the facts and circumstances in which the borrowers) voluntarily surrendered the property. If the borrower’s payment history on the property was not affected before the short sale or deed in lieu and was voluntarily communicating with the servicer or holder, then a waiting period from the date transfer of the property may not be necessary.
If the foreclosure, deed and lieu or short sale was on a Kentucky VA-guaranteed loan, then a borrower may not have full entitlement available for the new Kentucky VA loan. Ensure that the borrower’s COE reflects sufficient entitlement to meet any secondary marketing requirements of the VA Mortgage Lender in Kentucky

Can you do a Kentucky VA Cashout Refinance Mortgage Loan Up to 100% of the home’s value?


Does VA allows 100% equity  Cash-Out on Refinances for Kentucky VA Mortgages?

Yes is the simple answer, but a lot of VA lenders will only go to 90%, so be careful shopping out there for quotes and qualifying info.

VA allows Kentucky VA Mortgage holders and veterans to finance 100% of the purchase price of a home, but they also allow Kentucky VA Mortgage veterans to take cash-out up to 100% of the value of their home! You are still subject to the funding fee unless disabled, and the cash out maybe limited in hand depending on your credit score.

  • Cash-Out Refinance up to 100% .Higher Credit Scores may be needed to get cash in hand after paying off existing mortgage. Subject to debt to income limits and acceptable appraisal. VA termite required again.
  • Min FICO 620 with no bankruptcies or foreclosure last 2 years
  • Max Loan Amount subject to VA County Loan Limits
  • 0 x 30 days on mortgage in last 12 months
  • Can pay off existing VA, FHA or conventional mortgage (Note there MUST BE an existing lien against the property)
  • Must be first lien and owner occupied by the Veteran applicant. (Note: Property may NOT be owned free & clear)
  • Owner-occupancy cert is required
  • Properties listed for sale in the previous 6 months, prior to the date of the application (& appraisal) are not eligible
