HUD announced that they were increasing the FHA loan limit ceiling and floor in high-cost areas. The loan limit at $765,600 was increased to $822,375 in 2021, while the loan limit floor was increased from $331,760 to $356,362. The conforming loan limit, which is the floor and ceiling limits set by the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) each year that the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae) and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac) will guarantee, will also increase. In 2021, the national conforming loan limit will be $548,250, while the national loan limit “floor” will be $356,362*. Areas where the loan limit is higher than this floor are considered high-cost areas.

Use what you have, and then start fresh with reusable products like eco-friendly cotton rounds that you can throw into the washing machine or dental floss in a glass jar that you can reuse. By asking those around you if they want clothing, a book, a table, or anything you don’t use, you could potentially help someone nearby that might need that exact thing and help yourself get more out of your house. From our social media apps to our mailboxes (real and virtual) and our friends, we want things all the time, and we want them now (thanks, Amazon Prime). Saving your money for something like a vacation, paying down student loan debt, or a down payment on a house will be more gratifying than buying a new pair of shoes every week.

A lot of people don’t necessarily understand that you can use them a second time or [what] the funding fee [is], and VA disability compensation and how that impacts the funding fee. I don’t want to say that the military branches aren’t doing it correctly, but I believe in my heart that maybe they aren’t pushing it as hard as they could to veterans because of the cost that is associated with it. Any veteran that has a service-connected disability, meaning that they don’t have to pay the funding fee, they should always do VA… and VA rates, in my experience over the last seven years have always been the best rates on the market. n’t see a lot of mistakes with veterans the first time because the first time you use it you don’t know anything about it.

To pay off debt, you need to have an income, and if you don’t have an income, you might be accruing debt. Lenders will look at your debt-to-income ratio (DTI), which is the monthly amount of your income that covers your debts. If you aren’t comfortable with over 50% of your monthly income going towards your debts, it might be better to consider renting until you can pay off more of your current loans or until you can make more money through a second job, extra hours, or a promotion. If you don’t need to buy a home or don’t need the home you currently live in, consider renting to meet your needs.
