Fannie Mae Offers Lower Down Payments on Bergen County NJ Real Estate!

Posted by PAULA CLARK @ 7:35 pm, May 30th, 2008

Fannie Mae announced this week that, beginning June 1, it would lower down payment requirements from 5% to just 3% for all conventional, conforming mortgages processed through its Desktop Underwriter® automated underwriting system.  Loans processed outside the Desktop Underwriter® system will still require a 5% down payment.

Part of its “Keys To Recovery” campaign, this initiative will apply to homebuyers all across the country, regardless of local market conditions.  Since the biggest obstacle for many first-time home buyers is saving up enough money for a down payment, this is great news if you want to take advantage of the current Bergen County NJ real estate market!
