Why Should You Choose an FHA Loan?
- Low Cost.
The loans are federally-insured, and maintain competitive interest rates.
- Low Down Payment.
The down payment can be as low as 3.5 percent of the selling price of the house, and it can include gifted funds from a family member, employer, or charitable organization.
- Easy Qualifiers.
With an FHA-insured loan, lenders may give borrowers loan terms that make it easier for them to qualify.
- Perfect Credit Not Needed.
Compared to a conventional loan, an FHA-insured loan does not require perfect credit. It’s easier to qualify for an FHA loan even if borrowers have credit issues.
- Protection Against Foreclosure.
If borrowers encounter problems maintaining monthly house payments, FHA provides alternatives so that they can still keep their home.
FHA Loan Options:
- Fixed-rate loans.
Fixed-rate loans can bring borrowers peace of mind, because they guarantee the same interest rate and monthly payment, throughout the life of the loan.
- Adjustable-rate loans.
An adjustable-rate loan is a good option for borrowers who plan to only own their home for a short period of time, or who expect their income to increase in the future. The initial interest rate and down payment with adjustable-rate loans are low, but may increase or decrease throughout the loan period, as FHA calculates the interest rate by using the 1-Year Constant Maturity Treasury Index (CMT). These loans are advantageous if the prevailing interest rate for a fixed-rate mortgage is too high.
- Purchase/rehabilitation loans.
Borrowers have the ability to purchase a home, repair it, and include all the costs with these loans. They are also a good loan option for borrowers who want to buy a home that needs to be remodeled or repaired, and want to pay only one mortgage payment.
