The contract may be dated prior to the date of the loan application. Buyers may be pre-qualified. However, if the buyer does not have a contract on a property, program funds cannot be reserved for the buyer until such time as the buyer presents a valid contract. To assure that loans are purchased, please follow the Processing, Delivery and Purchase Timetable below. Please DO NOT reserve loans that cannot meet the timetable. This is particularly important with respect to new construction, foreclosures and short sales. Please wait to reserve funds until loans can meet the timelines below. Loans not purchased within the timeframe below, cannot be purchased. Loan Processing, Delivery and Purchase Timetable Once a loan is reserved in the ehousingplus system and is provided the Servicer s Loan number, the loan must be: (1) underwriter certified within 15 days of loan reservation, and (2) purchased within 70 days of loan reservation. If the loan is not underwriter certified within 15 days of loan reservation, the loan is subject to cancellation. ehousingplus notifies lenders via that the loan may be canceled if the underwriter certification is not completed. Should the loan reservation be canceled at any point during the reservation, the issuer may allow the loan to be reinstated at the higher of the mortgage rate originally reserved or the current program mortgage rate. Extension Request Any loan not purchased within 70 days is ineligible for purchase unless the lender chooses a onetime only 30-day extension. The cost of the extension is $375. The $375 extension fee is due whether or not loans are ultimately delivered and/or purchased. The $375 will be netted by the Servicer when loans are purchased. If an extension is permitted, but the loan is not purchased, the originating lender will be billed for the extension fee of $375. Any outstanding fees owed by the lender may result in that Lender becoming ineligible to participate in the program. At 101 days, a loan that hasn t been purchased is cancelled and cannot be reinstated. Again, the 30-day extension is offered once per loan and no further extensions will be allowed. Furthermore, regardless of choosing an extension, any loan not purchased within the approved timeframe will become the liability of the originating lender. An extension request is available on the FANO ehousingplus web page. Click on the SUMMARY tab, scroll to the area titled, Extensions.
