How long to wait after selling my home, can I apply for FHA?

Good Afternoon.. I've been reading up a lot about FHA loans and have come close to answering this question.

How long do I have to wait to get accepted for an FHA loan after I have sold my primary home. I had a conventional loan previously and sold that home in October of 2016. I've seen many different answers to my question and before I start calling brokers can someone give me a clear answer?

My credit is 860 and my DTI is minimal and I've been renting for about 4 months and want to get into another home but don't have the down payment currently for a conventional.

Can I qualify for FHA now?

Thanks in advance,
