Process
The size of the EHF second mortgage (up to $60,000, but not to exceed 25% of the purchase price) is determined by the borrower’s household first spending at least 25% of their gross monthly income on housing (including 1st mortgage PITI, association dues, etc. – do not include 2nd mortgage interest payments).
The first mortgage lender submits the loan package to the EHF for review by Stephanie Hawkinson and one member of the EHF Board of Directors. If it is determined that the applicant qualifies for the Come Home 2 Edina second mortgage loan, the Program Reservation Form is signed and returned to the first mortgage lender verifying eligibility. An eligibility letter is also provided for the title company.
The Edina Housing Foundation will provide the closer a wire transfer from the EHF for the amount of the second mortgage, made payable to the title company responsible for the closing, as well as copies of the EHF’s Second Mortgage and Note for execution at the closing.
Some details for the closer:
- After the closing, the title company shall return the original signed Second Mortgage Note and a copy of the signed Second Mortgage to the EHF, attention Stephanie Hawkinson.
- Upon recording of the Second Mortgage, the title company shall return the original document to the EHF, attention Stephanie Hawkinson.
