Fha Loans Could Be the Answer for First-Time Home Buyers
August 15th, 2008 Posted in Local Businesses, Local News, Real EstateHeads up first-time home buyers! Recently, the loan limit for FHA was increased to $680,000.
Here are some of the reasons it would be to your benefit as a first-time home buyer to meet with a qualified mortgage specialist with regard to whether you qualify for a FHA loan:
- High loan-to-value. 97% financed and only 3% down payment
- FHA is very liberal on credit scores accepting as low as 580
- Allow gift funds with some additional requirements
- Allow non owner-occupied co-borrowers and will consider their income for qualifying
- No adjustments to interest rates for high loan-to-value
- Loan on manufactured homes as long as on permanent foundation on owned land and home 1976 or newer
- “A Paper” pricing = great interest rates
- Acreage okay if price is reasonable for the area
FHA Loans can be done on purchases and refinances.
