FHA loans may make it easier to buy or refinance
The Federal Housing Administration (FHA) offers loans with low down payments for buyers, and a streamlined process when you’re ready to refinance.
Streamlined refinance for existing FHA loans
If your current mortgage is an FHA loan, the streamlined refinance process may help.
- No appraisal required
- No credit check
- No income verification
Down payments as low as 3.5%
If you’re a first-time homebuyer or have limited funds, FHA financing can be a great way to expand your homeownership opportunities.
- Buy a home with as little as 3.5% down
- May allow you to use a gift or grant for all or a portion of down payment and closing costs
- Requires less cash upfront, but you typically have to pay FHA mortgage insurance premiums
- Lets you qualify with a co-applicant, even if the person doesn’t live in the home
Tip
FHA loans have the benefit of a low down payment, but consider all costs involved, including up-front and long-term mortgage insurance and all fees. Ask your home mortgage consultant to help you compare the overall costs of all your home financing options.
