Nehemiah, Ameridream, HART and other private charities that offer seller assisted down payment grants score a win with the introduction of H.R. 6694.
This proposal counters the legislation passed last week that puts an October 1st, 2008 cutoff for seller assisted down payment assistance programs under title II of the National Housing Act (H.R. 3221)
H.R. 6694 calls the authorization of risk based mortgage insurance premiums for certain mortgagors that meet Fico requirements of 620 and above.
I believe this bill will move quickly through the process and be the saving grace of these valuable charities. This is responsible legislation and necessary to continue to stimulate the U.S. Housing market in a responsible way.
For more information, to take action against the ending of Nehemiah and programs like it and to follow the progress of this new legislation you can go to Nehemiah's website here.
