Im in Texas and Im trying to structure a conventional to fha refinance and im having problems verifying reserves. My question is on a rate and term refi can I use gift funds from a family memeber to cover the cash to close?
Sorry if this is a dumb question.

If your appraised value has you bringing cash or reserves are the difference between an approve and a refer it is absolutley fine to get a gift from family.

In the last month I have had 2 FHA refis with substantial cash to close. One was $13,000 but bringing them out of an arm and saving $500 per month. The other was $7200 to close also out of an ARM and saving them $250 per month. Both recieved large gifts from parents.
