The largest group of new and first time home buyers use FHA as the loan of choice. Why? Because the down payment is lower, credit scores are lower and the money for down payment can be gifted to the borrowers from family members and other close relatives.
FHA mortgage loans are issued by federally qualified lenders and insured by the U.S. Federal Housing Authority, a division of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
FHA loans are an attractive option, especially for first-time homeowners:
Generally easier to qualify for than conventional loans.
Lower down payment requirements.
Cannot exceed statutory loan limits.
Credit Scores as low as 580 possible
Can use family members to qualify for the loan
Gift funds from family, employer and close relationships possible for down payment
Can include energy, remodeling and many other upgrades or updates. Check out the link to learn more about FHA 203K & 203Ks loans by clicking here.
