FNMA Cuts Price On 434 Percent Mortgages
The AGENCY will keep buying 434 percent mortgages offered for sale but at a lower price. Banks will receive 90 to 9% of face value instead of 92 to 9%. Lenders with 444 percent mortgages may still present them to FNMA, but at a less attractive price. An FNMA spokesman said the change is necessary because paying about 5 percent for money makes high-rate mortgages unprofitable.
