FHA loan with judgment
FHA requires judgments to be paid in full or meet the exception guidance for judgments, unless excluded by state law.
An exception to the payoff of a court-ordered judgment may be made if the borrower has an agreement with the creditor to make regular and timely payments.
A copy of the agreement must be provided along with evidence that payments were made on time in accordance with the agreement, and a minimum of three months payments have been made prior to credit approval.
Borrowers are not allowed to prepay scheduled payments in order to meet the required minimum of three monthly payments.
The payment amount must be included in the calculation of the borrower’s debt-to-income ratio.
