Frequently Asked Questions
- What credit score do I need for an FHA loan?
- FHA loans can work for borrowers with lower credit scores than many conventional programs. Exact requirements vary by lender, but FHA is commonly used when flexibility matters more than the lowest long-term mortgage insurance cost.
- How much do I need for an FHA down payment?
- Many FHA borrowers qualify with a low down payment, making the program useful when cash-to-close is limited. A loan officer can tell you whether FHA or a low-down-payment conventional option is the better fit.
- What's the difference between VA, FHA, and conventional loans?
- VA loans are built for eligible military borrowers, FHA loans provide more flexibility for credit and down payment, and conventional loans often work well for stronger-credit borrowers seeking long-term cost efficiency.
- How do I verify a loan officer is licensed?
- You can verify a loan officer by checking their NMLS number in NMLS Consumer Access. Licensed professionals should be comfortable providing that information.
