Removal of 125% LTV ceiling
+ No new property appraisals
+ Elimination of certain risk-based fees

More homes will qualify under the new changes due to the LTV ceiling being lifted for underwater homeowners. Call JoAnn Young to get your application ready by the end of February. Rates are LOW, now is the BEST time to refinance and save more money in 2012.
