FHA Loan on house that doesn’t pass inspection. When do you do the repairs?
I am in the process of trying to finance a house with an FHA loan. I am concerned about the peeling paint on the exterior. If it doesn’t pass appraisal, do I get rejected on the mortgage or do I just have to agree to repair it within a given timeframe?
I was thinking of doing a 203k, but the bank I have been working with doesn’t do them.
If the FHA appraiser notes it as a required repair it will have to be done before closing unless HUD is the seller or you are getting a rehab FHA loan (which you specified that you aren’t). If the seller refuses to do it, you can back out of the contract without penalty assuming you have a financing contingency in place in your contract.
As someone else mentioned, the peeling paint, unless it is extreme and revealing extensive rot, probably won’t be an issue for the appraiser. They have become much less stringent on the condition requirements for FHA in the last 2-3 years.

Valley’s first-time homebuyers fill void
A flood of first-time buyers have jumped into an otherwise comatose real estate market. And despite the end of tax incentives, first-timers have kept right on buying, real estate agents say.
The above mentioned are the basic requirements in order to qualify for a home loan. Secondly, I was interested to know how big a home loan I could get considering FHA Mortgage Appraisal. As soon as I knew how much, I could start searching for a house.
FHA Mortgage Appraisal
What to do now that my mortgage is approved?
I'm buying a house with an FHA loan. The loan is approved, and I have presented today a signed addendum to the direction to purchase it, as well as an extra pair of documents. The loan officer said it was sending to subscribe today, despite already working on my loan. The evaluation was carried out last week. What should I do? What do I have to do, and a final tour and show up at closing? Please explain the process, thanks!
Well you are in the final! Your loan officer is probably looking after all and if you need anything else that will let you know. You may have some insurance quotes, but the loan officer / Processor could do that for you, it can not hurt to look for yourself too. After all these elements are clear who gave the loan officer, then you can close on your house title company, signing a stack of papers, after moving!
