Hi,

We are looking to obtain a mortgage for a new home purchase in Park Slope (90% financing), but are running into a few hurdles: 1) a lot of places say they will not finance coops, 2) the loan amount is considered “jumbo” despite the stimulus package that has increased the jumbo loan size, or 3) they will not allow 90% financing. Has anyone on the forum closed within the past month or so, and can you recommend a lender with competitive rates? I’d prefer to avoid mortgage brokers if possible.
