i asked for a fha loan and was told i can get a manual under right mortgage loan.
It simply means that the underwriter will have to mannually underwrite the loan. Normally lenders have automated underwriting tools, Desktop underwriter and Loan Prospector, that can underwrite your loan utilizing the data entered into the computer.
Sometimes there are factors that the computer doesn't recognize, such as alternative credit. Or compensating factors that the lender feels need pointing out.
Some programs also utilize manual underwriting, like when brokering a file out, or going through a Community Program.
It's not a bad thing, just an extra step.
