Housing Move Opens Markets for Buyers
The new housing bill could make about 3 million moderate income families eligible to buy homes and expand rental options. It extends mortgage terms to 40 years for moderate income buyers, lowers monthly payments on a $15,000 home, and allows 35 year loans with higher insured limits for higher earners. Down payments and closing costs shift with the extended terms, aiding affordability under FHA programs.
