The issuance of this letter has been cause for much confusion regarding the operation of down payment programs throughout the United States and whether loan officers can continue to offer such programs to qualifying borrowers.<\/p>\n<p>On April 23, CBC Mortgage Agency filed a law suit against HUD for engaging in rule making without proper public notice and comment. Subsequently HUD agreed to a 90-day stay on the Mortgagee Letter, while the case is heard in Federal Court.<\/p>\n<p>We need your help to let HUD know of the value Chenoa Fund DPA programs provide your borrowers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Chenoa Fund DPA Update<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Chenoa Fund down payment assistance programs are available in the United States as they were prior to the April 18. Having secured the 90-day stay, all loans with a case number issued on or prior to July 23rd are eligible for purchase, just as they were prior to the issuance of the mortgage letter<\/p>\n<p>Link to Announcement Sent: https:\/\/mailchi.mp\/chenoafund\/chenoa-fund-rate-sheet-6-25-19<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Announcement 1: It has come to CBC Mortgage Agency\u2019s attention that some of our correspondents are having issues with certain parts of our MERS requirements&#8230;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"content-type":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[104],"tags":[494],"class_list":{"0":"post-8945","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-updates-and-announcements","7":"tag-mers-requirements"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
