At Epoca, helping more people feel at home is what we love. FHA loans are just one of the ways to make it happen. Here’s a quick breakdown of what they are and how they can help you buy a new home in Otay Mesa today. Let’s get to it!
Exactly what is an FHA Loan?
Simply put, an FHA loan is a government-backed mortgage with simpler financial requirements that can make buying a new home more achievable. They are backed by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), an agency under the jurisdiction of the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), and insured by the FHA.
How Do They Work?
Depending on your credit score, FHA loans allow new homebuyers to borrow up to a certain percentage of a home’s value, homebuyers with a credit score over 580 can borrow up to 96.5% of a home’s value with an FHA loan. Homebuyers whose credit scores are between 500 – 579 can still qualify with a 10% down payment.
What Are The Advantages?
FHA loans come with a lot of perks. You may qualify for an FHA loan even if you have a less-than-perfect financial history and/or lower credit score because the credit score requirements are lower than other loans (now would be a good time to check your credit score to find out your current status). Let’s say you’ve got a debt, bankruptcy, or other financial issues on your record. FHA loans many times can still work with you to obtain a loan you can live with. Maybe you’ve heard that you will need a huge down payment to buy a new home. Thankfully that’s not true. Things have changed. FHA loans may allow the lender to accept a lower down payment, and closing costs can often be rolled into your loan, which makes them convenient and less stressful. If you’re a first-time homebuyer, FHA loans are very appealing too. Your mortgage lender can walk you through the FHA loan process so you can easily and quickly discern what it entails. It’s easier than you might think to buy one of these new homes for sale in San Diego.
