Karin Crompton Can bank require list of rehab items plus receipts?
30 May 2014 | 58 replies
Hi Karin,The above you mentioned used to be the case with FHA flips that were probably ear marked to be sold to Wells Fargo as one of their secondary market conditions was two appraisals if the sales price was 20% or higher than the acquisition cost when documenting the 24 month chain of title.I understand your frustration, they (Wells) just want to make sure that banks on the origination front do their proper due dilligence with valuation and documentation of the value to ensure that they will not have to buy back that paper from the correspondent lender (unless your dealing directly with Wells Fargo).Its hard unless you ask but if you find a banker who is originating loans and directly selling/servicing their government loans to Ginnie Mae(GNMA) then they may not require you to have the two appraisal and additional procedures because its not necessarily a GNMA requirement but rather banks on the front lines trying to reduce their risk and requiring these additional steps from you to protect their behinds.Generally you may find that on Flips they may need the appraiser to go out and certify that the property also passes FHA's health and safety standards as well so dont be surprised (double strapped water heater, CO detectors, etc).In the past I've had to show excel break downs of work done, invoices, bill of sale's, and others too but that was back when New American Funding sold the paper to WF (not any longer =).

At the very least houses bought for cash-flow should keep up with apartments because investors would buy them as investments if rent goes up and cap rates compress... plus you have that large pool of people that want to achieve the American Dream of Homeownership.
