Keynote: Using Technology to Effectively Originate FHA Loans

According to a 2007 report by the Government Accounting Office, FHA's product restrictions and lack of process improvement relative to the conventional market was largely responsible for the decline in market share, despite comparing favorably in cost to the subprime programs that largely eclipsed them. Now GAO expects FHA to fund 10% of home purchases in 2008 and 15% in 2009, continuing to levels not seen in over a decade. So how do lenders get their piece of the pie? Panelists will provide practical tips on how to efficiently originate FHA product in an ever-changing mortgage market.
