New Mexico Affidavit of Occupancy and Financial Status
Overview of this form
The Affidavit of Occupancy and Financial Status is a legal document used by buyers to confirm their intent to occupy a property as their primary residence. This form ensures that there have been no significant changes in the buyer's financial status since the loan application was submitted. It is a critical step in securing financing from various agencies, including the FHA, FNMA, and VA, distinguishing it from other property-related forms that may not require such explicit declarations of residency and financial stability.

When this form is needed
This form should be used during the closing process of purchasing a property when buyers need to certify that they will occupy the home full-time.

Completing this affidavit helps prevent possible legal repercussions stemming from false declarations regarding occupancy.
