Please maintain the maximum seller concession for FHA loans to 6% of the transaction in the interest of promoting increased homeownership.

As a mortgage lender (loan officer, branch manager, sales manager) for the past 10 years in the Raleigh, NC area. I have not once heard of somone defaulting on thier loan because of a seller contribution being too high. Normal closing costs and pre-paid items only account for about 3-4% of the sales price so it is my opinion that seller contributions being up to 6% can only go to help buy the clients rate down which would only help keep a buyer from defaulting down the road because he/she has a lower mortgage payment. I'm not sure how reducing the seller paid amount from 6% to 3% would actually help FHA or HUD from having additonal defaults. Please keep the 6% seller contributions as they are now.

What you are proposing does not lower foreclosures only takes potential buyers out of the market.
