(created by Dodd Frank)

• Reg Z - - Regulation Z: the main component of the Truth in Lending Act that was implemented to provide the trust cost and term of the loan to the consumer. Purpose is to promote the informed use of consumer credit by requiring disclosures about its terms and cost. The regulation also gives consumers the right to cancel certain credit transactions that involve a lien on any dwelling of a consumer—even second home. In 2008 Reg Z was amended by the Mortgage Disclosure Improvement Act (MDIA). The purpose of the MDIA is to ensure that consumers receive disclosures earlier in the mortgage process and clarify the mandatory waiting periods.

Introduction to Reverse Mortgage for Purchase

• A Reverse Mortgage is a loan product available for anyone over the age of 62.

• The loans are insured by HUD (Housing Urban Development).

• The loan allows a Senior to purchase a home, use financing, along with a down payment BUT

never make a mortgage payment.

• How does a reverse mortgage work:

– A reverse mortgage is calculated by evaluating the borrowers age or life expectancy, equity

in the home and living expenses.

– Unlike a normal mortgage, you don’t have to make any regular monthly payments. With a

reverse mortgage, the interest accumulates and combined with “not making” any mortgage

payments, the principal balance grows and reduces the equity you have in the home.

– As long as you use the home as your primary residence AND keep the property taxes and

insurance current, you will not have to make a mortgage payment.

– You can sell the home or refinance at anytime. YOU own the home!

Mortgage 101 – Loan Products• Government Loans – Loans insured or guaranteed by the government (VA/FHA).

• Conventional Loan – (Conforming Loan) – A loan which meets the requirements to be eligible for purchase or securitization by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. These limits have temporarily been increased for 2017 from $417,000 to $424,100.

• High Balance Conventional Loan (Super Conforming) – in between loan of 424,100 – 636,150 A mortgage that is not insured or guaranteed by the federal government (FHA/VA).

• Jumbo Mortgage – A mortgage larger than the maximum eligible for purchase by the two GSEs, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, not including Alt A or subprime loans. (See Non-Conforming Loan.)

• Amortized Mortgage Loans – Loans that automatically pay a portion of each monthly payment to the principal balance with the rest being paid as interest.

• FRM – Fixed Rate Mortgage – A mortgage loan in which the interest rate does not change during the entire term of the loan.

• ARM - Adjustable Rate Mortgage – A mortgage with an interest rate & payment that changes periodically over the life of the loan based on changes in a specified index.

• Interest-Only Mortgages (IOs) – Mortgages on which for some period the monthly mortgage payment consists of interest only. During that period, the loan balance remains unchanged. These loans are also called deferred amortization mortgages. After the interest-only period ends, the payment jumps to cover both the interest owned and the principal and the interest rate may adjust based on a particular index, if it is an ARM. (normally a portfolio loan)

• 40-Year Mortgages – These mortgages have payments calculated on a 40-year term, but most of them must be paid off in 30 years. Lengthening the term cuts the monthly payment, but the loan carries a slightly higher interest rate than a 30-year loan. (normally a portfolio loan)

Mortgage 101 – Loan Products (Cont’d)

• Basis Point (often denoted as bp, bps or 1/100) – A unit that is equal to 1/100th of 1%. It is commonly used to denote the change in a financial instrument, or the difference (spread) between two interest rates. Although it may be used in any case where percentages are used, for convenience, it is most often used when quantities in percentage points are small. It avoids the ambiguity between relative and absolute discussions about rates.

• Caps – A set percentage amount by which an adjustable rate mortgage may adjust each adjustment period. Caps are usually quoted as two numbers, as in 2/6. The first number indicates how much a loan may adjust at each period, while the second number indicates how much a loan may adjust over its lifetime. Loans like the 3/1 and 5/1 adjustable which have an initial fixed period are quoted with 3 numbers, as in 2/6/3, which means that the first adjustment may be as much as 3%, subsequent adjustments are capped at 2% each and the lifetime cap is 6%. Two-step loans are quoted with a single cap, which is the amount by which the loan may adjust in its single adjustment date.

• Index – A published interest rate not controlled by the lender to which the interest rate on an adjustable rate mortgage (ARM) is tied. The index and the interest rate linked to it may increase or decrease. (LIBOR, Treasury Constant Maturity (TCM), 11th District)

• Interest Rate - a unit used to calculate the portion of the loan payment, not being returned or paying down the principal balance owed.

• APR-Annual Percentage Rate - a broader measure of the cost of your mortgage including monthly payment, closing costs, and loan terms. The APR on a mortgage is not typically the interest rate the borrower will pay.

• Allowable & Non-Allowable fees or Costs (FHA or VA lists).

21

Page 20: “Mortgage 101 – Acronyms to Reg Z,

Mortgage 101 – Loan Products (Cont’d)

• Alt A (Alternative A) Loans – loans to prime-credit borrowers that have some combination of nontraditional documentation, non-standard product structure, or more liberal underwriting. Alt-A pools generally have higher proportions of investor loans and lower average credit scores (690 to 715) than conventional conforming or prime jumbo pools.

• Second Mortgage -Typically refers to a secured loan (or mortgage) that is subordinate to another loan against the same property.

• HELOC (Home Equity Line of Credit) – A mortgage loan, usually in second position, that allows the borrower to obtain cash drawn against the equity of his home, up to a predetermined amount

• FTHB - First Time Home Buyer – EOM, or Home Ready, etc.

• Refinance Loan – The process of paying off one loan with the proceeds from a new loan using the same property as security.

• Not Prevalent

– Stated Income Loan – A mortgage where the lender does not verify the borrower's income but it is taken at their word. These loans are sometimes called "liar loans." Stated income loans have been extended to customers with a wide range of credit histories, including subprime borrowers. The lack of verification makes these loans particularly simple targets for fraud.

– Subprime Loans – Loans made to those who have impaired credit. Generally have higher interest rates than prime loans. Such loans are tied to borrowers’ credit ratings, expressed as letter grades, such as A-, B, D. Prime loans’ credit is most often A.

22

Page 21: “Mortgage 101 – Acronyms to Reg Z,

Mortgage 101 – Loan Guidelines• Loan-to-Value (LTV) Ratio – A mathematical calculation which expresses the amount of a first mortgage

lien as a percentage of the total appraised value of real property. For instance, if a borrower wants $130,000 to purchase a house worth $150,000, the LTV ratio is $130,000/$150,000 or 87%. LTV is one of the key risk factors that lenders assess when qualifying borrowers for a mortgage.

• Combined Loan-to-Value (ratio) (CLTV) – The proportion of loans (secured by a property) in relation to its value. When "Combined" is added, it indicates that all loans – first and second lien – on the property have been considered in the calculation of the percentage ratio. (See Loan-to-Value Ratio.)

• PITI- Principal, Interest, Taxes (Property), Insurance (Homeowners): this is the total monthly housing expense for a home buyer and is used in total qualifying debt.

• DTI-Debt to Income Ratio: this is the main “income qualification” to determine a borrower’s ability to repay the loan.

– FER – Front End Ratio- the calculation of PITI & A / (over) Gross Income.

– BER – Back End Ratio - the calculation of PITI & A (HOA fees) & Installment Loans (Car, other loans (student, personal), etc.) / (over) Gross Income.

Debt to Income Ratios – Loan Program Parameters

What Will Happen When or If Mortgage Rates Increase?Each loan program has certain requirements – a maximum DTI is one of them.

Keep in mind there is a front end and back end ratio that needs to be calculated.

What does this mean… let’s get educated on DTIR (Debt to Income Ratio).

The buyer’s monthly

housing expenses

are added together.

➢ Principal

➢ Interest

➢ Taxes

➢ Insurance

Combine these expenses

with the regular monthly

debt payments (credit

cards, car loans, etc).

The DTIR is the percentage of the gross

monthly income represented by the total of

expenses. In most cases, the debt to income back

end ratio should not exceed 43%. However,

Freddie Mac loans have been approved with up

to 49% and even 56% for FHA.

The front end ratio is the total monthly housing

expenses divided by the total monthly income.

The back end ratio combines of housing expense

and other debts divided by the total monthly income.

Page 34: “Mortgage 101 – Acronyms to Reg Z,

Debt to Income Ratios – at a Glance

What Will Happen When or If Mortgage Rates Increase?Joe and Shirley pay $1,500 a month for their mortgage, in which $800 goes to the principal and $700 goes to the interest of the loan. They pay $300 in taxes each month, along with $100 for

insurance each month. Their total PITI is $1,900.$1,500 (PI) + $300 (T) + $100 (I) = $1,900 (PITI)

In addition to these monthly housing expenses, Shirley has a student loan in which she pays $250 a month. Shirley also likes to shop, so her credit card debt requires payments of $150 a month. Joe

has an auto loan of $400 a month. These additional monthly debt payments add up to $800.

Joe and Shirley’s combined monthly income is $5,900.

$1,900 (PITI) / $5,900 (monthly income) = 32% (front end ratio)

$1,900 (PITI) + $800 (other debt) = $2,700$2,700 (total monthly debt) / $5,900 (monthly income) = 46% (back end ratio)

Mortgage 101 – Loan Servicing• Loan Servicing – Generally covers everything after disbursing the funds until the loan is fully paid off, and is the process by which a

mortgage servicer or subservicing firm collects payments from borrowers. The level of service varies depending on the type loan and the terms negotiated between the firm and the investor seeking its services

• Service Release - Loan Sale – Acquisition Loan – All are descriptions of the Buying and selling of Servicing Rights to the Mortgages

• Assumption – generally on FHA Loans

• Mortgage underwater: Owes more than the property is worth

• Charge Off – Internal term of a Mortgage Servicer (usually when a loan is moved to another area, or company) for account recovery.

• 3rd Party Authorization – Authorization provided to the Lender from the borrower for confidential information, allowed to be shared about their Loan. We encourage the use of the Authorization to Release and Convey (ARC) inside of Zipform , if the Lender does not have such a specific form on their system.

• Loss Mitigation – Activities designed to reduce the likelihood of a mortgage investor or insurer suffering financial losses on a mortgage, or the final dollar value of those losses in the event of a borrower defaulting.

• Waterfall – of Loss Mitigation Options – Progression of Default Options, based on Individual’s Hardship and Loan Status

• Loan Modification – A modification to an existing loan made by a lender in response to a borrower's inability to repay the loan. Loan modifications can involve a reduction in the interest rate on the loan, an extension of the length of the term of the loan, a different type of loan or any combination of the three. A lender might be open to modifying a loan because the cost of doing so is less than the cost of default.

• Short Sale – When a bank or mortgage lender agrees to discount a loan balance due to an economic hardship on the part of a borrower. When, the homeowner/debtor sells the mortgaged property for less than the outstanding balance of the loan, and turns over the proceeds of the sale to the lender in full satisfaction of the debt.

• DIL - Deed in Lieu of Foreclosure – The Legal process of the borrower turning the deed over to the lender/ Servicer, in Lieu of having a foreclosure.

• Foreclosure – The legal proceeding in which a bank or other secured creditor sells or repossesses a parcel of real property due to the owner's failure to comply with the terms of his or her mortgage.

• TS - Trustee sale – The legal proceeding in which a bank or other secured creditor sells or repossesses a parcel of real property due to the owner's failure to comply with the terms of his or her mortgage.- Used primarily here in CA.

• Real Estate Owned (REO) – a class of property owned by a lender, typically a bank, after an unsuccessful sale at a foreclosure auction. This is common because most of the properties up for sale at these auctions are worth less than the total amount owed to the bank.
