Not sure if either of those two things matters, but they are top three in pricing on the ICON report and a top 10 Ginnie Mae servicer so you loan most likely won't be sold after close.If you need a number, PM me and I'll get you in touch with one of their loan originators.Stephanie

Is it me or does anyone else find that banks are not giving up deals Hud properties, Fannie Mae  and Freddie Mac,  all seem to be over priced or at market value. 

@Aaron KaminerYes, fannie mae /freddie mac set a limit of 10 loans. 

And also guys like me will have fewer "uhhh yeah so Fannie Mae won't lend on it if it doesn't have a roof... duct tape and a tarp doesn't count" phone calls.

So in an effort to do that they created Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to create a market where mortgages could be rolled into bonds and sold, thus providing a huge amount of liquidity to our mortgage market.  

There are plenty of ways to do it but if you plan to use a VA Loan you'll want to narrow down the area you are looking at buying you home as the loan limits vary county by county.Visit the Federal Housing Finance Agency - Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac Maximum Loan Limits for Mortgages for 2017find your area and start from there.

If you've got 5 strongly cashflowing rental properties, you may be able to get at least one or two cash out refinances knocked out just based on the rental income, and then do the HML for those last few after you've squeezed Aunt Fannie Mae for all the cheap borrowed money she will lend you. 

They are able to analyze a deal as a business transaction and will make decisions based on profitability and security of the asset as opposed to a Fannie Mae backed residential mortgage which is more concerned with preserving the property's market value. 

It is a conventional loan insured by Fannie Mae.

Yes, It has been reported that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are going to change DTI requirements to 50% instead of 45%
