About FHA Loan

The Federal Housing Authorization, also known as an FHA loan, is a government-backed loan created for first-time homebuyers and designed to assist those with limited financial resources.

The Federal Housing Administration allows for financing approval with a 3.5 percent down payment and a credit score as low as 580.

If you have less than a 10% down payment on an FHA loan, you must pay mortgage insurance for the life of the loan.

FAQ's
