Homebuyers with good credit scores will soon encounter a costly surprise: a new federal rule forcing them to pay higher mortgage rates and fees to subsidize people with riskier credit ratings who are also in the market to buy houses.
The fee changes will go into effect May 1 as part of the Federal Housing Finance Agency’s push for affordable housing, and they will affect mortgages originating at private banks across the country. The federally backed home mortgage companies Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac will enact the loan-level price adjustments, or LLPAs.
Mortgage industry specialists say homebuyers with credit scores of 680 or higher will pay, for example, about $40 per month more on a home loan of $400,000. Homebuyers who make down payments of 15% to 20% will get socked with the largest fees.
The new fees will apply only to Americans buying houses or refinancing after May 1.
Is this true?

This is going to make the housing shortages just that much worse. This is a horrible idea on so many levels. And yes-responding to another poster, this seems like socialism to me 100%.

That we have credit scores and have people who do right by their debt or not makes this new proclamation the most idiotic idea ever! There's zero good this does except reward the Dems who want people who are idiots voting for them I suppose. State of our country is in such a mess given our debt ceiling crisis and this stupidity.

Meh, until the GOP changes its stance on sensible gun legislation and abortion, they will not have my vote. This doesn't change it.
Meh? How old are you? I truly don't care about your voting issues, you voted for this as did most on this board, it is just the beginning of redistribution. I will happily laugh when you lose your home and other possessions for such careless handling of this countries finances.
