Mortgages for Law Enforcement

Eligibility for all Law Enforcement Personnel, Police Officers, Sheriff Officers, State Troopers, Case workers, Corrections and Parole Offices all may qualify.

There are two different types of present Police Officer loans available.

1) The Champion Loan which is a no bank closing cost loan for all members of the above groups with proper documentation. This program can be for active or retired personnel.
2) A government pension loan This loan is for paid police in certain applicable states only.

Let us explain the difference between the two:
Champion and State.

1) The Champion: This is a No Bank Closing Cost Loan. The Champion loan is a true no bank closing cost loan. When we say no bank closing costs, we mean every closing cost fee charged from the Mortgage Company will not be charged. You will still have to pay all third party fees (Such as an appraisal, title, Insurances, Credit, etc) as well as any interest due in association with your loan. This loan is for Fannie Mae and FHA approved champion borrower at a competitive interest rate. You must need to qualify and have a DU approval to be eligible for this loan.

2) A Government Pension loan: This is a retirement system loan. This loan is funded thru the state’s housing and mortgage finance departments. Beware there is verbiage on the state’s website that claims a potential tax implication of this type loan as well as high fees

From the State of New Jersey:

The State Treasurer has obtained and is relying on an opinion from tax counsel that there is an adequate basis, in accordance with prevailing guidelines, to conclude that it is reasonable for the Police and Firemen’s Retirement System to take the position that mortgages issued under this program should not be treated as taxable distributions.  If it is ultimately determined that these mortgages are taxable distributions, you could be required to pay tax on the mortgage proceeds as well as penalties.  We suggest you consider consulting your own tax advisor before submitting your application. Here are the fees associated with the government loan:
FEES: Applicants will be required to pay a standard non-refundable application fee and a flat fee of not more than $1,500, $750 of which must be paid at the time of application.  The balance of the flat fee is to be paid at closing.  If the loan closes successfully, the administrator of the funds, HMFA, is to be paid $325 making the borrower’s total costs $1,825 (this $1825 does not include closing costs.)  The fee at the time of application is not refundable unless the loan is denied by the lender for underwriting reasons.
Borrowers will pay a flat monthly charge of $30 per month as a servicing fee.  After 3 years on the 37th month, the fee is reduced to $18 per month.  The servicing fee will be added directly onto the mortgage payment.  In addition, a one-time set-up fee of $10 will be charged at closing.

CLOSING COSTS FOR GOVERNMENT LOAN:
Borrowers are responsible for all closing costs in addition to the application fees. Under certain circumstances closing costs may be rolled into the mortgage.

Champion Loan: No Closing Costs for Police!
With the Champion program every bank fee is eliminated.

Some of these fees can be: an Application Fee, the Loan Processing Fee, the Mortgage Underwriting Fee and the Mortgage Commitment Fee and associated Commitment Points which can save as much as 2.00% to 3.00% on each loan
