FHA Loans

FHA loans are government-backed mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), a division of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). They’re offered only by FHA-approved home loan lenders like Financial Concepts Mortgage.

When Are FHA Loans a Good Fit?

FHA loans are ideal for first-time homebuyers as well as buyers with limited savings or lower credit scores. These loans require only a minimum 3.5% down payment and a credit score of 580 or higher. You can still qualify for an FHA loan if your credit score falls between 500 and 579, but a minimum 10% down payment is required.
