1934 Mortgage industry began under FDR
Horrible economy – end of Depression Housing - the way to make economy grow 50% down payment at that time FHA created 3% down payment More likely to default Walk away if times get tough Insures lender

FHA mortgage defaults - FHA pays FHA set maximum loan amounts
FHA insures loans – Does not loan money or build homes FHA mortgage defaults - FHA pays FHA set maximum loan amounts People started buying homes Economy began to recover Lenders ran out of money What could they do?

Secondary market created to buy mortgages
Primary lenders sold pools of mortgages Fanny Mae bought these mortgages Primary lenders collected payments Escrow for taxes and insurance Service loan for a fee Lenders also charged closing cost to make money Origination, Discount, Service fee Fanny Mae sold mortgage backed securities to investors

I950’s more buyers wanted a piece of the pie
Private Mortgage Insurance – PMI 5% down payment on larger loans Saving & Loan Banks needed secondary source Freddie Mac created Today they both buy the same loans 1960’s government realized it was in trouble Turned into private companies Didn’t want risky mortgages Ginnie Mae came about to buy risky loans Government owned Guarantees loans

3 Financial Intermediaries Institutional Retail Banker

Developer buys land, puts lien on entire development When house is built on one parcel and sold Partial release clause – releases lien on that parcel (patch) Package Mortgage – Real and Personal property Includes Appliances, Furniture Popular at beach (condo and furniture) Farm Equipment

Open end mortgage – Like credit card
Leave mortgage open to add to in future Graduated payment mortgage (FHA245) Goes up about 5% each year for 5 years Negative Amortization Adds to principle – will owe more than borrowed for years Reverse Annuity Mortgage Senior Citizen gets check for part of equity each month Upon death, home is sold by family and debt paid

Adjustable Rate Mortgage Protects lender from interest rate changes
Changes Each year (up or down) Principle Plus Margin – profit to lender - Fixed during life of loan Index- measure of change such as Consumer Price Index Cap per year/life 2/6

Amortized Loan –Equal payments until note dies
Also called - direct reduction loan - Includes: Principle – the amount borrowed Interest - Rate remains constant through life of loan Mortgage payment also will include: Escrow for Taxes & Insurance PITI Principle, Interest, Taxes, Insurance Interest is paid in arrears – ( at end of period when ) Straight loan – pay (interest only) each year (rare) Loan would renew each year Pay off principle later Balloon – Amortized over 30 years, but Balance is paid off with a big lump payment at 5 years * Most owner financing is Balloon

Acceleration Clause (like accelerator petal on car)
Miss 3 payments and lender speeds up loan Foreclosure starts and borrower (mortgagor) has: Equitable Right of Redemption Pay off loan before foreclosure sale Statutory Right of Redemption Pay back loan plus cost of sale within one year Don’t ignore lender- work with them They don’t want the house Short Sale – Bank agrees to take less than owed

Defeasance Clause Alienation Clause Acknowledgement = Notarize

Mortgages -- local Alabama custom
Negotiable Instrument – will be sold Two parties Lender and borrower Trust Deed Three parties Trustor – Lender Trustee – Holds title Beneficiary -- Borrower Usury Law – Limits the amount of interest charged

Priority of liens first to record, first to collect
Constructive notice (recorded) Actual notice (actual knowledge) Primary – gets first money from foreclosure Secondary – may not get any money Subordinate or junior Prefix sub- means beneath Alabama is a deficiency state Lender will get judgment claim against borrower Property taxes always have first priority

Seller makes promise to deliver marketable title Cloud on Title
Chain of ownership on property Marketable Title – 40 years – no challenges Seller makes promise to deliver marketable title Cloud on Title Break in chain of title Forgery Title Insurance – insures chain against defects Will have exclusions not covered – easements ALTA – unrecorded liens – materialman

Points - 1 point is 1 % of loan
Origination – Bank commission for selling loan Discount - % of upfront $ paid to reduce rate on loan Builder buy down for a couple of years Permanent buy-down for length of loan 1 point increases yield to bank about 1/8% Assumptions of Mortgage Rules vary by loan type Assume – Seller still responsible for debt Subject to – Seller not responsible for debt Novation – new note

Owner Finance Purchase Money Mortgage 2nd Mortgage
Purchaser has title Seller keeps legal title until paid off Bond for title Land sale contract Contract of deed Installment Contract

FHA insures (% upfront + % each month) VA guarantees (government)
Ends when principle < 80% of original appraisal VA guarantees (government) CRV Certificate of reasonable value Same as appraisal Veteran must qualify & property must qualify Can substitute another’s guarantee Conventional – PMI (private mortgage insurance) On amount more than 80% of appraisal value
