Some great things about FHA Loans

  • NO Minimum FICO score is required
  • There are NO “non-allowables” for sellers any longer
  • FHA now uses the same appraisal forms as Freddie and Fannie
  • Buyer CAN currently be in chapter 13 BANKRUPTCY
  • Sales Price up to $206,000 (and should be up to $275,000 by year end)
  • It is an assumable loan (important when rates go to 8% and they are at 6%).
  • There are NO prepayment penalties (unlike many 80/20 High Risk loans)
  • Can have federal tax liens and not have to pay them off
  • Can have unpaid collections
  • Experienced Loss Mitigation staff dedicated to help homeowners avoid foreclosure

…And all this with a market interest rate!
