Client Requirement
The client relocated from California to metro Atlanta and needed to purchase a condo big enough for his growing family. The client was adamant about putting down as little as possible, but needed to maintain a payment within his budget. The other main requirement was being able to purchase something at the high end of his budget. He wanted to make sure the home would be in the right area for future resale or rental opportunity.
Loan Challenges
The main challenge here was to find a program that would allow for a conventional loan since it was a condo, low-down payment and reduced mortgage insurance. Staying under a specific amount for a monthly mortgage budget was key for this client.
The Challenges
- Needed a conventional program that would allow a low down payment.
- Reduced mortgage insurance a plus to keep payment low.
- Must stay under a certain amount per month on mortgage payment.
