Additional Information
Borrowers that have a contract to purchase a new construction home can apply or convert a pre-approval at any time during the building process. Advise the member: o Of their options and costs for locking-in an interest rate. o That an interior/exterior appraisal is required on all new construction loans when the home is 95% complete (Guideline is that 95% = everything complete on the property except sod, landscaping and appliances). o That a final inspection will then be required once the home is 100% complete. (Note: final inspections will result in an additional fee to be paid by the member beyond the cost of the appraisal).
A Condominium property requires a VA issued Condominium ID prior to the loan going to a processor. If the Condominium property is not VA approved, USAA Mortgage cannot assist with obtaining the ID. Please contact the local VA Regional loan center for guidance.
Please note the average time for a VA appraiser to complete their report is 10 business days, depending upon the state the property is located. After the appraiser has uploaded the report to the VA website the VA underwriters have 5 business days to review and approve the report. Once it is approved, USAA will notify the member if there are any conditions on the Notice of Value (NOV) they may need to be cured prior to closing.
Most properties will require a termite inspection. The following states normally do not require this report unless the appraiser indicates a problem: Alaska, Colorado, Idaho, Maine, Minnesota, Montana, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Oregon, South Dakota, Washington, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. Some areas of New York, Michigan, Vermont will require the inspection.
If the property has a private well or septic, these will need to be inspected and/or repaired prior receiving approval to close.
All NOV conditions from the appraisal are required prior to receiving approval to close. Loan documents cannot be sent until all required NOV items are 100% complete. Bank REO's, Foreclosures, and any property being sold "as-is" may require extensive repairs that must be completed to the satisfaction of a VA licensed appraiser prior to receiving approval to close. USAA cannot lend on collateral that does not meet the minimum property requirements of the VA.
Remind member to review and sign all required fields and return their loan application package and all requested credit documentation within 3 days of receipt. To help facilitate the prompt return of the package, USAA Mortgage provides a postage paid overnight mail envelope for the member to use.
Complete the Contract Cover Sheet and fax with a copy of the fully executed contract and copy of MLS print-out to USAA Mortgage at 866-384-8867. To expedite the process with the VA, the agent must fax this information on the same day of receiving a fully executed contract/agreement. If the member has not converted their preapproval (CCB) to a full loan application, the member must contact USAA immediately and advise they want to convert their CCB. Please note that USAA does not make an outbound call when the fax contract is received.
Agent should access the Realtor Portal weekly to ensure closing is on target. Contact the Agent Help Desk (800-914-9691) for closing delays and/or questions.
While income and asset documentation is not required to start the loan application process, the application cannot be submitted to underwriting without certain minimum documentation that the processor will ask for when they first contact the member. If this documentation is not received in a timely manner the application is subject to cancellation. This policy also applies to subsequent documentation requested from underwriting.
