“B papers” Mortgage As Good As “A paper”
You are looking for buying a mortgage. Unfortunately your credit situation will not allow you to get any of those great rates deal. You would be glad to know that there are alternatives. In fact, certain types of loans exist for those who have a less-than-perfect credit.
These loans are called "B paper”. They offer 2/28 and 3/27 loans. The number before the slash refers to the number of years that the initial rate is fixed. After that, the rate changes on a predetermined schedule (usually every 6 months or 12 months) for the remainder of the life of the loan. These B paper loans usually have a two-year prepayment penalty, meaning you can't refinance for two years.
B paper is just as competitive as A paper, if not more so. However, there are numerous applicants to borrow these types of loans, so you will not get the lowest possible rate. But one advantage lies in the fact that you also don't have to pay an exorbitant amount in points on top of the higher rate (One point is one percent of your loan amount).
Keep in mind that by getting these loans will allow you to fulfill two of your needs. First you will get financing resources that you are looking for. Second you will also be able, at the same time, to rebuild your credit history. Think how good your credit report will look two years after you have 24 on-time payments behind you. Then you can apply for an A paper loan without fearing of getting “Non-Approved”.
