FHA RAISES CLARK COUNTY LOAN LIMIT TO $400,000

Just hot off the press, we are excited to share this very good news to all of you, courtesy of my preferred lender Aaron Gordon at Countrywide Home Loans.

As part of the Obama mortgage plan, that FHA has raised the loan limit to $400,000 in Clark County and $325,000 in Nye County.

You can find details at https://entp.hud.gov/idapp/html/hicost1.cfm

This means buyers looking for homes up to $412,000 can now qualify with as little as 3.5% down. This is one ray of hope that we have been waiting for to boost the housing industry and hopefully, be the catalyst for a much needed market stability.

Stay tuned for details on rates. If you or someone you know has been putting off the decision to buy a home, I can’t think of a better reason than this! The market is primed for qualified buyers: there is a sizeable amount of great inventories, mortgage rates are at an all-time low, and financing is available for responsible borrowers. It’s a win-win situation for buyers and sellers.
