| Does anyone know about the FHA Modernization Act of 2007 and if it is supposed to simplify becoming an approved FHA broker? My company is only 9 months old and we don't have $63,000 sitting in our account, so I was hoping the bill would address this and just make me increase my Surety Bond. Any help or info would be appreciated. |

After being rushed into discussion, that bill has been completely stalled now. They don't plan to act upon it until January after the election, because it was nothing more than a ploy by Barney Frank to get votes.
You'll be waiting awhile. |

I think you only need $12,000 something liquid. The rest you can pledge your own assets like cars, homes etc. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Can the $12K be personal as well, stocks, CD's, etc...? I'm cool if that's the case but someone told me today the assets had to be business assets and not personal and I was hoping he was wrong.quote: Originally posted by khoiey

Thanks, I guess I'll transfer the funds into the business account and let it sit for a while.quote: Originally posted by Clr2close
