What it would have done

Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.

The Wisconsin Housing and Economic Development Authority (WHEDA) administers a homeownership mortgage loan program to encourage homeownership and to facilitate the acquisition of rehabilitation of certain residential properties.

Under the program, subject to certain limitations, WHEDA may, directly or by contracting with an authorized lender, make, buy, or assume loans to finance the construction, long-term financing, or rehabilitation of certain residential properties (homeownership mortgage loans). One limitation is that, under current law, homeownership mortgage loans may not be made to finance the purchase or replacement of an existing mortgage unless the existing mortgage is a construction loan, temporary financing, or a loan made to finance a rehabilitation project. Under this bill, a homeownership mortgage loan may also be made to finance the purchase or replacement of an existing mortgage if the existing mortgage is a loan funded or serviced by WHEDA.
