Q

Scenario:
client is buying an owner occ purchase, she has been a teacher for 57 years, got disabled in 1998 to 2015, then retired in 2015, started Teaching again 1-27-2020, and is salaried, can we use her salary along with her soc sec income, mahalo.

A

Since she has not been employed in 22 years, we would consider this new employment. Freddie requires 24 months, Fannie requires 12. We would not be able to use this at this at this time since it is so new :(

Q

Scenario
FNMA/Freddie purch
would we require 6 or 12 months on the job, since his offer letter doesn’t guarantee 40 hrs and he isn’t salaried, let me know, he is relocating here to work for the USPS,

A

we cannot use an offer letter when it is not fixed income.

Variable hours requires a 1-2 year history. If the history is made up of more than one job then we will need at least 6 months on the current job to determine the income is stable and in line with the former earnings in the same line of work with similar pay. Anything outside of this will require a 1-2 year history on the current job
