Update on MSHA program

I have done a little more research and have talked to a lender who is as familiar with the program as can be at this point. It is actually a credit of UP TO $5000 but no more than 4% of the loan amount. The borrower must contribute 1% of the loan amount. Under programs such as MSHA/FHA this can be a gift. The program ends November 30, 2009. Hope that is more clear!

I strongly encourage any borrower to consult with a loan officer regarding whether or not this makes sense.

There are income limits ,also, that apply!
