New York Subprime Home Loans
(Access, Edge, Elite) |
Arc Home abides by all NY state statutes. Loans originated under the Edge, Access or Elite products may not be considered “Subprime Home Loan” under New York Banking Law. |
Arc Home does not purchase loans subject to the Home Ownership and Equity Protection Act of 1994 (HOEPA), also known as “federal high-cost” mortgages. Arc Home does not purchase mortgage loans that meet the definition of “high cost,” “high risk,” “covered,” “subprime,” or any similar designation under state or local law. Arc Home will purchase loans that comply with N.Y. Banking Law § 6-M (New York Subprime). Arc Home abides by all NY state statutes. |
