Last week was a relatively slow
news week.
The big news this week is the FED
Meeting on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Most don’t expect the FED to move
the Federal Funds rate at this time.
This is also likely the last FED
meeting chaired by Jerome Powell.
Kevin Warsh will most likely be
confirmed soon and presiding over
the following FED meeting in June.
There are a lot of characteristics
that go into a mortgage rate –
credit score, investor, loan to
value, loan amount, costs, etc.

scenario so we can price your loan

NEW CREDIT SCORE MODELS
COULD HELP MORE BUYERS QUALIFY
On April 22nd, FHFA announced that they
are allowing Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac
and HUD to use new credit scoring
models for consumers to qualify for
home loans. These more modern scoring
models will allow clients to potentially
get higher scores with the ability to use
housing rent, utility payments, etc. in the
credit score. This could help clients
qualify for a mortgage and/or get
better rate pricing.
For decades, clients have qualified for
a mortgage with a credit report using
the Classic Fico Model. FHFA is
opening up the ability to use other
credit scoring models like Vantage
4.0 FICO 10T.
Because this was just announced, it
will likely take time for lenders to
update their technology to use these
updated scoring models. We will
release more details on this as
information comes out on when
this could potentially go live.
