    Benefit Concert for a local Family

    November 5th, 2008

    This summer I met and helped a wonderful  family to purchase their fist home.   When I met them they were in the beginning stages if the adoption process.  Adopting a child is a very lengthy and is quite costly. 

    They found a home that will give them a permanent, safe place to raise a family.  They now turn to our community to help them move forward in providing a home for a needy child.

    There will be a benefit concert and silent auction Featuring the Folk music of Randy and Jenny Jones.   All proceeds and donations will go to the Spence Family.  Donations can still be received after the concert.

    Concert will be November 8th

    at 7pm

    2304 Zanker Road

    San Jose, CA 95131

    Adoption is greater than the universe….it was there before the universe, it is above the universe, and it is the purpose of the universe…- John Piper

    $300 BILLION IN FHA REFINANCING:

    August 30th, 2008

    Under the HOPE for Homeowners Program, 400,000 distressed homeowners can pay off their troubled mortgages and replace them with more affordable, FHA-insured loans. To qualify, a borrower’s monthly payment on existing mortgage loans must be over 31% of his or her income as of March 1, 2008 (hence demonstrating the borrower’s inability to afford the original loans). The original loans must have been originated before 2008, and secured by the borrower’s principal residence (as well as only residence). Also to qualify, the borrower must satisfy FHA underwriting requirements for the new FHA-insured refinance loan.
        

     The FHA refinance will be a fixed rate loan up to $550,400 for at least 30 years, and will include charges for FHA insurance premiums. The maximum loan-to-value ratio of the FHA refinance is 90% of the appraised value. If the refinance proceeds are insufficient to pay off the existing liens, the refinance will not go through unless the original lenders voluntarily agree to accept a short payoff as payment in full. Rules will be established to allow, among other things, equity sharing for the original junior lienholders.
        

     Upon obtaining the FHA refinance, the borrower must share with the FHA at least 50% of any equity realized through a subsequent sale or refinance. The FHA’s share in equity will be based on a sliding scale of 100% of any equity realized within the first year of the FHA loan, 90% the second year, and so on, but not less than 50%. The HOPE for Homeowners Program shall be in effect from October 1, 2008 to September 30, 2011.
