The mortgage market is roaring, but loans are going almost exclusively to borrowers with pristine credit histories and sizable down payments

The mortgage market is humming, but getting approved for a home loan is as difficult as it has been in years.

Mortgage credit availability, a measure of lenders’ willingness to issue mortgages, is near its lowest level since 2014, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association, or MBA. The tight lending environment illustrates a growing cleavage in the mortgage market: More home loans are being made than almost ever before, but they are going almost exclusively to borrowers with pristine credit histories and sizable down payments. Borrowers with credit qualifications that fall just outside the stellar category are finding fewer lenders willing to approve their applications.

“Because mortgage credit is more difficult to obtain, it is a more competitive environment overall,” said Dr. Lawrence Yun, chief economist at the National Association of Realtors. About 70% of mortgages issued in 2020 went to borrowers with credit scores of at least 760, up from 61% in 2019, according to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.

That’s not because loans aren’t available; those buyers just have a better edge when there are 45 offers per home

Có thể chịu đựng được.

Market needs to correct. Then more people could afford to buy. It’s a bad time to buy rn.

It would be better to make bad loans to people who can’t repay the loans back! O wait that already been done by the student loan program!

You can get a loan in the 600 scores (obviously mid to high 600 is better) but check w a lender first so you know exactly what you qualify for. You may be surprised.

This is the way it ought to be...

As it should be.

No kidding what a shock! Why, because we don’t won’t another housing crash folks. Loose under writing and zero down would lead to another 2008.

As opposed to....?

Couple of months ago I came across a recommendation about Blaketeddy56 wealth how he helped investors to earn lots of money with their investments. and I decided to give a trial with the little I have. Now my little has turned into something great which was not my expectation

lindsaywise Pro tip: it’s a really bad time to buy a house.

I was waiting for the, 'giving loans to people with good credit, cash for down payments, and enough income prospects to pay back the loans, is white supremacy'. What a relief that theres an article that focus on the subject at hand. Housing is in a better place than it was.

Glad I bought my house 20 years ago and paid it off in full. Home ownership is for the elite now.

Isn't that the way it is supposed to be?

That is the republican way. Only help the Rich. The 'working' folks can fend for themselves.

Evil banks, why would they protect their investors like that?

As it should be. We don't want to repeat another housing collapse.

People need a little more good news now.

This is where $ELVT comes in 👀

Might as well do this ..... bubble

There’s a reason for that. And when Clinton forced lenders to ease restrictions he caused the biggest meltdown since the Great Depression. I guess news media don’t care to study history.

Good...isn’t the reason the housing market crashed because they would give a loan to anyone?

Follow me guys, I will 💯follow back.
