FHA-insured financing may offer approachable down-payment and credit guidelines for qualified buyers. James can help you understand the benefits, costs, and requirements before you choose a direction.

Understanding FHA financing

What should you know?

Potential 3.5% down payment

Qualified borrowers may be eligible for a minimum required investment as low as 3.5%, subject to FHA and lender requirements.

Mortgage insurance

Most FHA loans include an upfront mortgage insurance premium and an annual premium generally collected through monthly payments.

Primary residences

FHA purchase financing is generally designed for owner-occupied primary residences that meet applicable property requirements.

Property considerations

The home must satisfy FHA appraisal, safety, soundness, security, eligibility, and loan-limit requirements.

Questions worth discussing

  • How FHA compares with a conventional loan for your situation
  • Your estimated cash needed for down payment and closing costs
  • How mortgage insurance affects the monthly payment
  • Whether gift funds or eligible assistance may be available
  • Property condition, occupancy, appraisal, and loan-limit requirements
