		<description>Is this a Fannie/Freddie program? What banks carry it? Is it a manual or automated Underwrite?

Thanks!</description>

		<description>Oopps!  Just goes to show you how much our guidelines are always changing.  :)  No problem, David.  You made me double check my guidelines too and there&#039;s nothing wrong with that!</description>

		<description>Trust me, David.  This is two different programs.  I just closed a purchase with a non-occ and my borrower (the occ.) had to invest 5% last week--Flagstar.

Not being vested or on the deed is a huge difference in itself.  Maybe the borrower does not want the parent or child to be in title for estate or other financial planning reasons.   If the borrower were to purchase a property for family and not have the parent or child they are buying the property for on title (w/o this program) it would most likely be considered NOO.</description>

		<description>Ok, this hurts. I&#039;m wrong. Interfirst apparently changed their guidelines. 

&quot;Non-Occupying Co-Borrowers are allowable up to 95% LTV; with Accept Risk Classification from Loan Prospector or Approve/Eligible from Desktop Underwriter. The occupying borrower MUST have 5% of their own funds invested into the transaction FOR ANY LTV OVER 80%.&quot;

Excuse me while I go eat humble pie. Thank you Rhonda for that info.</description>

		<description>Rhonda,

Thank you for that input. However, the Non-Occ option (Freddie Mac specialty) allows for the downpayment to be from the non-occupant (full gift). The occupant does not need to contribute the downpayment. This at least is what Oda Egeland from Interfirst (now CITI) was advising me on about 2 months ago...she&#039;s a very good account exec.

In regards to the occupant being on title or the deed, I&#039;m don&#039;t know enough to comment here.....</description>

		<description>David, There are differences between this program and a &quot;non-occupant co-borrower&quot;.  

This program does not require the occupant to contribute to the down payment and it does not require that the occupant be on the title or deed of trust.</description>

		<description>uberdubersalad,

This program&#039;s been around for awhile. They simply haven&#039;t trademarked it like they have now. It&#039;s simply a &quot;Non-Occupant Co-Borrower&quot; program that&#039;s been highlighted.

Interfirst was doing them at least 2 years ago.</description>
