And that quashes any dream of owning a house at my advanced age. As if I needed another reason as stupid as this.

This administration is the worst in history, and I thought Obama was bad, Biden’s make them look like super geniuses.

He’s rewarding his voters and punishing the other side’s. Whether that is madness or politics is left as an exercise for the reader - but too many nominal Republicans don’t realize that when they vote against mean Tweets this is what the kind of treatment they deserve to get.

Yesterday, by chance, I checked my three credit bureau scores:

832, 834, 837.

What I thought was interesting was that they all ‘offered’ ways to ‘increase’ my scores(s).

When we built our fist home (still in it) we had 25% equity and purchased points to lower our rate from 8.25% to 7%.

IT WAS NOT EASY!

I cannot believe being penalized for working/saving...glad we refinanced some time ago...

FJB!

Unless things have changed PMI is only required if you are going conventional and haven’t put down 20%... Once you have 80% LTV PMI is not required.

So I don’t agree with this nonsense, but if you don’t want to pay higher PMI, save up a bigger down payment.

YOu wouldn’t have needed to pay PMI at all.

PMI is required when you have less than 20% equity.

If you put down 25% you shouldn’t have paid any PMI.

“high-risk buyers”

i.e. loyal Democratic voters

Probably a federal law obligating the entity to facilitate lower-income home ownership.

But isn’t the goal for ALL to pay PMI?

They change the rules and this article is the start.

Well, the people paying often paid far more for “social justice” if they went to college.

I am so glad we sold our old house (paid for) and just paid cash for our new property and small home. Everything is paid for. We pay off our credit cards every month. We never buy anything on credit. We figure if we don’t have the money in the bank to pay for a new car or a big ticket irem, we don’t need it.

I don't know where he gets it, but I can tell you where he doesn't have the authority - The United States Constitution.

In most new DC & NYC apartment buildings the amounts paid by the tenants for rent on similar units may vary by a factor of 10.
