FHA has just issued new guidance for cash out refinances that will affect ALL loans with FHA case numbers assigned on or after September 1, 2019.

The maximum LTV for a cash out refinance will be limited to 80% Loan to Value. This is a change from current FHA guidance which allows for 85% LTV on a cash out refinance.

If you are working on any refinances where this could impact the loan scenario you’ve disclosed to your borrower make sure you have a FHA case number assigned as soon as possible.

If you aren’t sure how to pull a FHA case number, please reach out to Production Support for assistance.

Dear Employees,

2019 Annual Employee Training period has begun!  Employees who complete all 8 training modules by Aug 26, will be awarded 50 points on the intranet gaming platform.

Anyone hired after 1/1/2019 has already met the employee training requirement for 2019 during the onboarding process, thus will not need to complete it again this year.  Below are a few instructions to help you get started.

You can view the modules in any order you wish.

Click on the drop down arrow by “1 course”, then click on training title.

On the bottom of each slide is a navigation bar.  Here you can enlarge the size of the presentation, control the volume and move forward in the presentation.

This bar also reflects the slide number you are on, and the total number of slides in the presentation, not including the quiz.

For example, the bar below shows 4 / 21.  This means you are on the 4^th slide and there are 21 total slides in this module.

You will be returned to the iSpring dashboard where you can select the next training module.

For those employees who completed the training during the onboarding process in 2019, you have already met the requirement.

Happy Training!
