Scheduled Cuts in GSE, FHA Loan Limits Will Curb Housing Demand, Depress Prices, NAHB Study Says

摘要

A scheduled reduction in loan limits for Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and FHA will curtail housing demand and put downward pressure on prices, according to a National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) study. Unless Congress acts, the government-sponsored enterprise (GSE) and FHA limits will drop to their permanent levels under the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 (HERA) on October 1.
