Foundation problems? Then you may receive a lower mortgage.
Summary
Future homeowners of properties with foundation problems may receive a lower mortgage through the National Mortgage Guarantee (NHG) starting January 1, 2027. Lenders must consider expected repair costs when determining the maximum mortgage amount for NHG loans to prevent buyers from facing unaffordable repair expenses. This change affects mortgage calculations for future homeowners with properties at risk of foundation issues.
