Lending Giants Shy Away From FHA Loans<\/h2>\n

The nation\u2019s largest home lenders are curtailing their involvement in Federal Housing Administration loans, known for their small down payment requirements and help to first-time buyers and lower-income Americans. Lenders say they are concerned that they will be penalized if underwriting errors occur and the loans default. Therefore, they\u2019re backing away from issuing the loans.<\/p>\n

FHA loans have plummeted 19 percent in the nine months ending June 30 compared to a year earlier. Wells Fargo, the nation\u2019s largest home lender, saw FHA originations drop 82 percent in the first six months of this year compared to the same time period in 2013, according to Inside Mortgage Finance data. Bank of America saw a 72 percent drop in that time, followed by JPMorgan with a 55 percent drop.<\/p>\n

In a earnings call with investors in July, JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon said: \u201cThe real question to me is, should we be in the FHA business at all? And we\u2019re still struggling with that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lenders\u2019 attitudes toward FHA loans have turned sour after facing steep settlements recently from the Department of Justice and federal regulators. JPMorgan Chase & Co., Bank of America Corp., and others have already paid more than $3 billion in fines for originating faulty FHA loans during the housing bubble.<\/p>\n

\u201cA big issue is the DOJ settlements and their impact on the lending attitudes of the banks, which is clearly the elephant in the room,\u201d says Brian Chappelle, a former FHA official and partner at Potomac Partners LLC, a consulting firm for lenders in Washington. \u201cThe government is worried about access to credit. They\u2019re looking at volume numbers and they know it\u2019s a serious problem.\u201d<\/p>\n

HUD and Treasury officials recently met with bank executives at the White House to talk about improving FHA processes. Julian Castro, secretary of the Department of Housing and Urban Development, which oversees FHA, says the agency does seek to ease credit by rewriting clearly when lenders will be forced to pay the cost from loans that go bad.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith all our efforts, I want to send a simple message to lenders: Let\u2019s work together,\u201d Castro said in a prepared statement at the Bipartisan Policy Center Housing Summit on Sept. 16. \u201cMany have been reluctant to lend because they fear unanticipated consequences. They need to be able to manage their risk better\u2014and so does FHA.\u201d<\/p>\n

Anthony Hsieh, CEO of LoanDepot.com, the third largest FHA lender, urges government regulators to do something fast. \u201cAccess to credit is tightening across the board and the number of people who can get a home is shrinking to the point of code red,\u201d Hsieh says.<\/p>\n
