Example - $200,000 Appraisal
HLG provides from 80% of the appraised value up to the loan amount or 125% of the appraised value, whichever is less, subject to an overall limit of $100,000.
- If the loan amount is $225,000, the guaranty is $65,000 (80% of the appraisal up to the loan amount because the loan amount is less than 125% of the appraisal)
- If the loan amount is $250,000, the guaranty is $90,000 (80% of the appraised value up to the loan amount because the loan amount is equal to 125% of the appraisal)
