What to do

AWACS interpretation · not source language

What to review: Review the expanded leverage allowances permitting up to one hundred five percent combined loan-to-value for Florida Housing manufactured homes and the shared appreciation subordinate financing parameters for California university employees.

QC implications

  • Quality control should confirm that Florida Housing manufactured home loans utilizing the pilot variance maintain loan-to-value at or below ninety-five percent and combined loan-to-value at or below one hundred five percent.
  • Quality control should verify that California loans using the shared appreciation subordinate financing meet eligibility criteria for university personnel and do not exceed twenty percent down payment assistance or one hundred five percent total leverage.
