Do you qualify for the Back to Work Program in Kentucky for home buyers with previous short sale or foreclosure less than 2 years?
.jpg)
What is Back to Work?
FHA is continuing its commitment to fully evaluate borrowers who have experienced periods of financial difficulty due to extenuating circumstances.
Many borrowers experienced periods of recession related financial difficulty and/or credit impairment resulting from unemployment or a severe reduction in income. FHA recognizes the hardships faced by these borrowers, and that their credit histories may not fully reflect their true ability or propensity to repay a mortgage.
For Purchase transactions with case numbers assigned on or after August 15, 2013
The alternative guidance in Mortgagee Letter 2013-26 is effective for purchase applications with
case numbers assigned on or after August 15, 2013 through September 30, 2016.
All delinquent accounts and indications of derogatory credit, including collections and judgments,
bankruptcies, foreclosures, deeds-in-lieu, short sales, and other credit problems must be analyzed.
The lender must review the credit report and determine whether derogatory credit was the result of
an Economic
Event:
• The borrower exhibited Satisfactory Credit prior to the Economic Event Onset;
• The borrower’s derogatory credit occurred after the Economic Event Onset, and
• The borrower has re-established Satisfactory Credit for a minimum of twelve (12) months.
Foreclosure, Short Sale, Deed in Lieu, Bankruptcy
In all cases, the lender must verify that the derogatory credit was the result of an Economic Event
and document that a minimum of 12 months has elapsed since the date of the:
• foreclosure
• deed in lieu
• short sale
• discharge of Chapter 7 bankruptcy
Chapter 13 Bankruptcy
The lender must verify and document that
• the Chapter 13 bankruptcy was discharged prior to loan application and all required bankruptcy
payments were made
on-time, or
• a minimum of 12 months of the pay-out period under the bankruptcy has elapsed and all required
bankruptcy payments were made on time, and
• the bankruptcy was the result of an Economic Event
If the bankruptcy was not discharged prior to loan application, the borrower must receive written
permission from the
Bankruptcy Court to enter into the mortgage transaction.
Important Back to Work Definitions
HUD announced several key terms that must be reviewed in accordance with this program.

Mortgage applications hit 12-year low as refi boom dries up | Inman News
Mortgage applications hit 12-year low as refi boom dries up | Inman News
phone: (502) 905-3708
Joel Lobb, a senior loan officer at Louisville, Ky.-based American Mortgage Solutions, said that in all his 18 years as a loan officer he’s never seen it this slow.
“Refinances are pretty much not existent in the loan pipeline anymore, with a lot of mortgage refi shops closing,” Lobb said.
In addition to elevated interest rates, Lobb said fewer people are seeking to purchase homes with mortgages or refinance because the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) has both increased the mortgage insurance premiums that it charges borrowers and tightened its underwriting requirements.
“Once you figure those premiums in, it is very costly to refinance or buy a home,” Lobb said of FHA insurance premiums. “The private mortgage insurance market is supposed to supplement the government-insured mortgage market, but it is still very restrictive with higher credit scores requirements usually being at least 660 or higher.”

Mortgage Program Flowchart for Qualifying a mortgage loan in Kentucky
“Do I Qualify for a Mortgage Loan?” – RealEstate.com Flowchart
Exceptions to flowchart above.
1. Having a DTI ratio over 36% will not prevent a borrower from qualifying. A Kentucky household can comfortably afford a mortgage with a DTI ratio up to 45% or 55% with a VA or FHA loan with compensating factors such as high credit scores (740+),reserves equal to 12 months or more, large down payment or savings.
2. Down Payment.
There are several loan programs in Kentucky that allow a borrower to buy a home with little to $0 down payment. In fact, the USDA loan has a lower payment even when they have no down payment than compared to using an FHA loan with 3.5% down payment. Also there is VA loans which require no down payment if you are a veteran or active duty military, and last but not least, there is KHC or Kentucky Housing which offers down payment assistance on FHA loans in Kentucky so you can buy a home with zero down payment.
