Stimulus brightens prospect for locals
Leaders of the House of Representatives and the White House agreed the size of loans that can be purchased by government-sponsored mortgage buyers Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac should be increased sharply for a year from the current cutoff of $417,000. The plan also would nearly double the size of loans insurable by the Federal Housing Administration to $729,750 from $367,000. The plan will likely provide the greatest aid in the states priciest markets, such as the Bay Area. Local analysts say San Luis Obispo County residents with homes in the $600,000 to $900,000 range and those looking to buy or refinance themcould see benefits, too. That bracket represents more than 500 houses now for sale in the county, said Matt Colonell, mortgage broker with Obispo Mortgage in San Luis Obispo, citing the San Luis Obispo Association of Realtors Multiple Listing Service.
