Crypto Assets Must Be Considered in Federal Mortgage Applications.

This Act mandates federal agencies (like HUD and VA) to update mortgage underwriting rules. Lenders will be required to consider the value of a borrower's digital assets (cryptocurrency) held in brokerage accounts associated with crypto exchanges during the credit evaluation process. This change aims to potentially increase access to home loans for individuals whose wealth is primarily held in cryptocurrencies.
Key points
The value of cryptocurrency holdings must be included when assessing creditworthiness for federal mortgage programs.
This applies to loan programs overseen by the Department of Housing and Urban Development, VA, USDA, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac.
Agencies have 24 months to implement these new guidelines, making it easier for crypto holders to qualify for mortgages.
