Never heard of a 50/50 mortgage. Especially, anything for first time homebuyers. So, I asked my loan officer and this is what she said:
Never heard of it. It could mean 50% down and 50% mortgage but that doesn't sound like a 1st time buyer program. It could mean a 50% 1st mortgage and a 50% 2nd mortgage but the rate is always higher on a 2nd mortgage so it would be better to do an 80/20 loan. Good to hear from you.

You must be well ahead of the timse because no such thing exists......

There are;
1/ 100% financing loans a/k/a no money down loans. This is not a conventional loan product and the buyer is penalized with a higher arte and so forth....

2/ 80/20 loans..this is the typical convential loan product and requires 20% down payment from the buyer. The max. loan will be 80% of the purchase price.

There are other variotions that require a 10% down payment and the bank finances 90% of the proce as a first and second mortgage.

I think you mean 80/20 mortgages. This option allows you to finance 100% of the value of the home, with no PMI insurance. PMI insurance is a mortgage insurance charged by the lender if you borrow more than 80% of the home's value on one loan. To avoid paying PMI, lenders can structure a first mortgage of 80%, since Fannie Mae only looks at the loan-to-value of the first lien mortgage, and since it is at or below 80% there is no PMI. The rest of the money is borrowed thru a second lien mortgage at 20% of the value, allowing you to finance 100%.

Hope this helps.
