As of yesterday, FHA began providing mortgage insurance for some purchases in which the seller bought the property and held it for fewer than 90 days. The agency is changing what is known as the “anti-flipping rule” to speed up sales of renovated homes in communities with too many bank-owned and foreclosed homes. Waiving the rule will encourage private investors to buy vacant properties, fix them up, and quickly sell them to buyers who will be eligible to buy them using FHA financing.
