FHA Approves Many New Florida Condos For 98% Financing In 2010

(FHA) Fannie Mae just approved a Slew of Florida condos for FHA financing in the first 1/2 of 2010, New condo project approvals for financing in 2010 have already risen by more than 50 percent compared to 09 when 80 or so FL projects were deemed acceptable for Fannie Mae standard mortgages . No new Florida condos were approved for financing in 08 after 27 projects were approved in 2007, according to the FHA report.

This presents new and greater opportunity for the Condo Investor/ Bulk Condo Buyer, looking to resell down the line with end user 98% financing in place. Prior too these FHA approvals, a lack of available financing typically means a potential slow death to the condo development, association, seller and Investors as lower prices for the Re sellers remain distressed, as the only would-be buyers have all cash and demand deep (vulture fund) discounts to transact almost 100% of deals.

Many mainstream conventional banks also Follow FHA standards on underwriting, which means conventional bank lenders/ borrowers were also staying away from Non Fannie Mae approved Condominium's.

Some of the newly approved developments are:

Marbella Lakes Condominium, , Naples fl
Hammock Bay Condominium, , Naples fl
Lakeside at the Isles
Ironstone at the Quarry, , Naples fl
