GSEs will not count buyer agent commissions as IPCs - HousingWire 04/15/2024

โš ๏ธAttention Realtorsโš ๏ธ
Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac made a clarification today that buyer-paid real estate commissions will not be counted towards the seller concession limits. Since they've always viewed real estate commissions as customary to the transaction and have never included them in the seller concession limit, they're considering the recent changes due to the NAR ruling as "business as usual," and buyer paid commissions will not affect the seller concession limit. Your buyers can still use a seller concession to help absorb some of their closing costs into the purchase price, which will free up the cash they have to pay a buyer's agent commission. If you have any questions about any of this, I'm always happy to help. Just shoot me a call or text at 518-339-7949.

GSEs will not count buyer agent commissions as IPCs - HousingWire GSEs clarify that they will not count buyerโ€™s agent commissions as part of the allowable interested party contributions.

This one was TWO years in the making! Buyer beware, when buying a property owned by a Church, it requires Attorney General of NYS approval which is anything but quick. Canโ€™t believe this one is over and Iโ€™m so happy for my amazing (repeat) clients! ๐ŸŽ‰๐Ÿพ

In the last week, 12 families I'm working with have submitted offers on homes. All 12 lost due to getting outbid.
I understand that not everyone is in a position to sell their home right now but if you have an inherited home, a second home, an investment property or you have the fortitude to be a buyer and seller in this dynamic market, I implore you to at least have a conversation with a trusted Realtor to see what your home is worth. Any additional home added to the market is a win for the tremendous amount of buyers actively looking for homes right now.

What an amazing two days, lobbying on behalf of the Mortgage Bankers Association of NY with these amazing people. Knowing that your words can have direct impact on policy that affects current and future homeowners is quite powerful. Iโ€™ll be following the bills we discussed to see if, even indirectly, we helped make a difference.
