How can FHA help me buy a Florida home?
FHA insured mortgages offer many benefits and protections to Florida homebuyers that only come with FHA:
Easier to Qualify: Because FHA insures your mortgage, Florida mortgage lenders may be more willing to give you better loan terms that make it easier for you to qualify.
Less than Perfect Credit: You don't have to have a perfect credit score to get an FHA mortgage. In fact, you don’t even need a credit score to qualify because FHA will allow no credit score home loans. And for Florida loan applicants with credit problems, such as a bankruptcy or Foreclosure, it's easier for you to qualify for an FHA loan than a conventional loan.
Lowest Down Payment: FHA loans have a low 3.5% down payment requirement and the funds can come from a family member, employer or charitable organization as a gift. Other Florida loan programs do not allow this.
Costs Less:  FHA loans have the most competitive interest rates because the Federal government insures the Florida home loans.
Helps You Keep Your Florida Home: The FHA mortgage insurance has been around since 1934 and will continue to be here to protect you. Should you encounter hard times after buying a Florida home, FHA has many options to help you keep you in your home and avoid foreclosure.
