FHA Loan Process/Steps. Where to begin?

[Shequila Hamilton]

Hello, I've been saving all year for a down payment and have been working to building my credit. As I am almost to my goal I look to acquire my first property by the beginning of 2018. Can anyone tell me how exactly do I apply for an FHA loan? Through all of my research I still have no idea where to look, who to contact, or how the process begins.
