Re: There's no universal seasoning required.

: If one were able to do an all cash purchase of a foreclosure property at say 70 to 75% below FMV and I was able to rent the property out for a slight positive cash flow, would it be feasible to quickly take out a traditional 70-75% non-owner occupied loan from an institutional lender to get your original purchase cash out of the property? Are there seasoning issues that would not allow you to do this?

: Thanks in advance.

Ed, in CA, Home Savings, now part of Washington Mutual, had a reputation of making loans based on fair market value and couldn?t care a hoot how long you owned it. Perhaps they do so under their new banner as well. Give them a call and see.

Also, I can tell you from personal experience that Wells Fargo will make their equity line loan on a non-owner occupied property at 70% of fair market value, regardless of how long you have owned it. In fact I have been able to have them make the loan directly to my trust that owns the property.

So from those experiences I would have to conclude that if there are any seasoning issues they are an individual lender requirement rather than any governmentally imposed standard.


Hope this helps.
