Federal Reserve cuts down home down payment rules
The Federal Reserve Board announced relaxed down payment rules for new private homes from October 1950 Regulation X. Purchases under 7000 will need 5 percent, 25000 or more require 40 percent, with a sliding scale between 10 and 40 for midrange prices. Mortgages terms stay 25 years under 12000 and 20 years for pricier homes, with veterans possibly longer if hardship shown. Officials doubt it will spur housing construction though it may ease buying and selling, especially for high priced homes.
