Participantwhat happens if you start making more than the limit after signing?
seems like a good product for qualified buyers. but the amount of the loan seems absurd… what happens if you’re trying to buy in manhatten? the hollywood hills? the hamptons? do they give you the million dollar loan on your sub 90k income?

ParticipantIn New York you would have to go through SONYMA. The income only matters at the time of qualificaiton. It is a great program for a person with a good job but is now going abck to grad school. There income is artificially low during this period of time so they would qualify as low income earners. Once they come out of school their income typically rises dramatically and they now have a residence and a low cost loan program. I beleive one of the other benefit is that they don’t include federal student loan debt into the formula.

ParticipantEx-SD –
Your points are well-taken. I agree that home prices are still significantly overvalued (probably by 35% or so in San Diego). I’m just saying that if one believes that dollar devaluation and inflation are on the uptake, then a significant chunk of the housing price correction going forward could be eaten by inflation. It will be a factor.
A lot can happen in 10 years to the value of a dollar due to inflation.
Lets take a stroll through a brief history of home prices in this country during inflationary times:
1970 : Price of a new home = 26,600 *
Median household income = 8734
inflaiton at 6.5%1975 : Price of a new home = 42,600
Median household income = 11,800
inflation = 14.1%1980 : Price of a new home = 76,400
median household income = 17,710
inflaiton = 13.5 %SO, there you have it. During a period that included significant chunks of double-digit annual inflation home prices tripled and income more than doubled.
1990 : Price of a new home = 149,800
Median Household Income = 29,943
inflation = 5.4%1999: Price of a new home = 195,800
Median household income = 39,973
inflation = 2.1%Higher inflation does not equal downward pressure on home prices.
