I see that Freddie Mac is a government-sponsored mortgage lender and promotes safe and responsible borrowing. Has anyone had experiences with them? Would I be more likely to be able to qualify for a house with them? Are there certain reasons for choosing them vs. traditional lenders?

How can you be approved for a mortgage and then denied right before closing?

Thursday 25 November 2010 @ 4:45 am
ksb143 asked:


We applied and were approved for a refinance on our mortgage. The day before closing the underwriter says that the expenses we claimed in our tax return last year(approx $20k) were to be deducted from the income and therefore the ratio was off. I’ve never heard of this. I assumed that this
would have been looked at before approving the loan. Does this make sense? So I faxed the broker the last paycheck stub for 2006 that showed the total expenses reimbursed for the year were $9300. Shouldn’t that be considered and offset the expenses paid out. Does anyone know what to do in this case?
