FHA Loan Guidelines & Requirements

Almost everyone is eligible for FHA Loans. Because of the unique benefits of the FHA Loan program, it is particularly attractive for first-time home buyers. Many times, people who can not meet the requirements for conventional loans will be able to qualify for FHA financing.

The requirements for the FHA Loan program allow for lower credit scores. So if you do not have great credit, a FHA Loan may be the right choice for you. We specialize in FHA loans, so we can help you understand how the FHA guidelines apply to you.

If you are looking to purchase a home but aren't sure about guidelines or requirements, we can help. By answering a few questions, you can connect with one of our FHA Specialists. Every representative from our company is fully trained to handle FHA home loans and we are on the cusp of new developments in the FHA loan industry.

You can start the no obligation process and connect with a specialist online. This is the best way to determine if you meet the requirements, your eligibility and qualification level.

Buying a home with an FHA loan

  • Your down payment can be as low as 3% of the price of the home (only until December 31, 2008 - after that, you'll need a 3.5% minimum down payment).
  • FHA also allows seller concessions up to 6% of your home purchase price.
  • First-time home buyers can get a tax credit up to $8000! “First-time home buyers” includes anyone who hasn't owned a home in the past three years.
  • Need a lower payment? Ask a mortgage banker about FHA Rate Break - a 1-year 1% reduction in your interest rate! Instead of taking an ARM, choose FHA Rate Break and enjoy a low payment AND a fixed rate.

 

Through December 31, 2008 Congress has also raised the loan limit on FHA loans across the country! For example, in San Francisco, the FHA loan limit went from $362,790 to $729,750. Higher loan limits mean lower rates for more people! Get in touch with us today: fill out the short online form or call (313) 350-4620 to find out the current FHA loan limit in your county.
