Low down payment
Qualified FHA borrowers may be able to purchase with a down payment as low as 3.5% of the purchase price.
FHA mortgage information and competitive pricing
FHA sets the program.
Lenders set the price.
FHA financing can offer a low down payment and more flexible qualification. But FHA mortgage rates, lender credits and closing costs can vary greatly from one mortgage company to another. We help you shop the pricing—not just the program.
Why an FHA loan can be a smart choice.
FHA loans were designed to expand access to homeownership. For qualified borrowers, they can combine a low minimum down payment with more flexible credit qualification than many conventional mortgage options.
Flexible qualification
FHA underwriting can accommodate borrowers with less-than-perfect credit or circumstances that may be harder to fit into some conventional programs.
Not just for first-time buyers
FHA financing can be available to eligible repeat buyers too. The home generally must be used as the borrower’s principal residence.
FHA Lender Rates and Fees Vary Greatly.
Choosing FHA does not mean every lender will offer you the same deal. One company may build much more compensation, overhead or margin into its pricing than another. That can show up as a higher rate, more points, a smaller lender credit, higher cash to close—or some combination of them.
Your interest rate
A lower FHA rate can reduce the principal-and-interest portion of your monthly payment. On larger loans, even a modest rate difference can add up quickly.
Your upfront costs
Points, origination charges and other lender-related pricing can vary. Looking only at the advertised rate can hide what you are paying to get it.
Your lender credit
A lender credit can offset eligible closing costs. Stronger pricing can sometimes produce a meaningful credit without pushing the rate unnecessarily high.
We are built to compete for your FHA loan on price.
Compared Home Loans takes a high-volume, low-cost approach and uses pricing to attract referrals. Depending on your loan amount and available lender pricing, a more competitive FHA offer can mean meaningful monthly-payment savings, thousands of dollars less in upfront costs, or a substantial lender credit toward closing costs. The goal is not simply to get you an FHA loan—it is to help you get a better FHA deal.
