acullum85 asked: I am currently under contract on a house that was built on piers. Everything underneath is very well insulated and even though the house is little older and has been used as a vacation home it was very well taken care of. My realter asked if i had mentioned to the bank when i was pre approved that the house was on piers. I had not. She said she didnt think it would be a problem. But now she has made me really scared that it wont be approved. Does anyone know if this will be an issue.

Mark asked: Last year I attempted to purchase a house that was up for short sale. The owner accepted my offer but the bank denied the short sale. Now the owner has stopped making payments and we are trying the short sale again. I am willing to pay the appraised value for the home. What determines whether or not the bank will give the thumbs up or down on the short sale? Is there anything I can do as the buyer to help the process go through?

boilerette72 asked: I hear that if a bank goes under other banks will buy these mortgages. But with so many mortgages exceeding values of homes, many banks might not want to buy the mortgages. What would happen if a bank goes under, and no one wants to buy their crappy mortgages?

akshay r asked: The home is in La Palma, orange county,california and the bank owning is not big. The home is listed at 589 k, comparable homes listed in the neihborhood are listed at 650k to 675k and there is another which is a short sale ( not bank owned) listed at 575k. My realtor suggested that 550k will be a fantastic deal but I am thinking to offer 510 - 520. I am ready to put down 80 -90 k.

kelly2sxy asked: I have a mortgage with one bank and could not pay so the bank started foreclosure proceedings. The foreclosure is not completed yet so does the new bank have to start all over and file all over again?

☆skyblue asked: I’m currently renting an apartment and want to purchase a home. I first need to get pre-approved for a home loan so I know what type of house I can afford. What should I look for in a bank when considering a home loan? Should I stay with the bank I currently have a bank account with or look at other banks also? If I contact a bank, are there specific questions I should ask to know if they’ll give me the best loan offer?

maganda asked: Hello. I am attempting to buy a foreclosure in San Diego that is a single family residence with a total square footage of 528. I was told it is difficult for banks to finance anything under 600 square feet. The house is in good shape but its tiny. I need financing asap since the bank already accepted my offer. Thanks.

alison a asked: I have a friend who is a builder and would like to use me for his mortgage broker. I have no problem finding banks who will do financing for owner occupied builder programs, but nothing for spec homes. A lot of the banks offer spec programs on the retail side, but I’m having trouble finding it wholesale. Thanks!
I do know what a spec home is
My rep at Indymac said that they only do owner occupied construction, but maybe there is another dept she’s unfamiliarr with? I’ll ask her again. Thanks!
