FHA Loan and FHA Refinance
Hi,
The Federal Housing Administration has long been a channel where borrowers who fall within the guidelines can turn to get a loan. The FHA loan allows borrowers who qualify for the program to put less money down, have less money as reserves to qualify, and even provides a small credit towards closing costs. Strides are underway to increase the max loan amounts and loosen the requirement to fit borrowers who are in mortgage trouble into the FHA loan. Many troubled borrowers who are unable to refinance with the current lending restrictions and limited loan options will be able to turn to FHA for help.
Cheers,
Samantha
