Kriapdx realtor: Yes, EEMs are difficult, mainly because a lot of lenders either don’t know about them or don’t want to bother learning the details and making them work. We do have raters in our network, however, who are helping homebuyers qualify for EEMs, so they’re certainly not impossible.  
 
You’re also right about 203k loans being very useful, and in fact, you can combine an EEM and a 203k to get $40k to $50k to do improvements on a home. Contact me if you’d like to know more, either about EEMs or EEM/203k combos.

I have been a green broker for 10 years now. Just want to let you know that EEM have been around for a long time now. They are virtually impossible to use. Believe me I have tried for both my listings and buyers. I use the FHA 203k loan now.
