FHA has so many programs for those that are looking to purchase a new home and or refinance their existing home. And just for the record, FHA is not the end to all problems. There are 100's of programs out there other than FHA. But what you need is a loan officer that not only has these other programs, but a lender that has FHA as well. Why?  So you have all your options just in case. I have seen way too many consumers get placed in a loan other than FHA because that particular lender isn't FHA approved. It's not a simple process and can cost that lender money to be approved.

FHA is not only for those that have less than perfect credit or for first time homebuyers. You could have bought a home with a previous FHA mortgage and still upgrade while using another FHA loan program. And in regards to someone having excellent credit, why would they want an FHA loan? FHA will allow for cash-out up to 95% of the value of your home to where as conventional will only go up to 90%. 

 

What I wanted to accomplish with this post is to give you an outline of many articles that give details about FHA and what it has to offer to you. You will also find some posts other than about FHA that can still be applied to FHA and other types of conventional loan programs. 

 

Information on buying a home and what to look for :   (FHA, convnetional, VA, or subrpime)

 

 

 

Other articles that relate to FHA : 

 

 

 

Information that can be used with FHA loans also : 

 

 

 

General topics of discussion : 

 




Now, I know this is a very long list. But I was always told that if you could learn just one thing a day, you would be a wealth of knowledge.  With this long list, you should be able to help learn at least one new thing in regards to purchasing a new home or if you are refinancing. Enjoy......

Jeff, an FHA mortgage is an option which should be presented to buyers. As realtors we should ensure that buyers are at least informed about FHA as a possible lending source. Good post.

Jeff, I need a folder for all your posts I bookmark. Yikkes. Wish we could organize them in AR. Do you know any tricks to doing that?
