New Job looking for a mortgage

New Job and a Mortgage ?

If a borrower is about to start a new job and has a guaranteed, non-revocable contract for employment that will begin within 60 days of loan closing, the income is acceptable for qualifying purposes. The lender also must verify that the borrower will have sufficient income or cash reserves to support the mortgage payments and any other obligations during the interim between loan closing and the start of employment. (This condition may be appropriate for situations such as teachers whose contracts will begin with the new school year, or physicians who will begin residency after the loan is scheduled to close.) However, if the loan will close more than 60 days before the borrower's employment begins, the loan is not eligible for endorsement until the lender provides a pay stub or other acceptable evidence that the borrower has begun the new job.
