FHA Home Loans are a mortgage insured by FHA within the Department of Housing and Urban Development. Since 1934, FHA home loans have been available, in fact, FHA began during the depression era. FHA has always been a very popular home loan for first-time buyers. It has also been very popular for people who have suffered bankruptcy or foreclosure, due to shorter waiting periods than conventional loans after these types of events. FHA won’t lend you the money, but an FHA approved lender will. FHA loan limits have been increased over the years to assist as housing has become more expensive. Given the down payment, requirements are currently 3.5%, it opens the door to homeownership for many who thought it would not be possible.
A conventional loan is ideal for those who make larger down payments and have a stronger credit profile. Unlike government backed loans (FHA,VA,USDA), conventional loans are not insured by government agencies. So they conform to underwriting guidelines set forth by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Therefore, you will find that the higher the credit score, the lower the interest rate. Times have changed, so this isn’t your 1980’s conventional loan. You don’t need 20% down. In fact, this is a big misconception about conventional loans.
Many recent changes have expanded the available pool of mortgages to buyers through conventional loans.Bear in mind, if you are buying an investment property you will need a conventional loan. Sometimes condos (unless FHA/VA approved) require that you buy using a conventional loan as well.

Lowering your interest rate saves you money, but that isn’t the only reason people choose to refinance. Refinancing goes beyond “rate shopping”, it takes experience, knowledge and education.
Deciding to refinance starts with weighing the benefits and the cost, then deciding if it makes financial sense. Every lender can offer lender paid closing costs, but a good lender should show you the cost benefit of this option. They should guide you and help you understand the available options. They also, may advise a strategy you didn’t think you were open to, but has a positive financial impact for your family’s largest asset.
Reverse mortgage loans (also referred to as “home equity conversion loans”) enable older homeowners to use their built-up equity without the necessity of selling their home. The lending institution pays out money based on the equity you’ve accrued in your home; you receive a one-time amount, a monthly payment or a line of credit. Paying back your loan isn’t necessary until when the homeowner sells the property, moves (such as into a retirement community) or dies. At the time you sell your home or is no longer used as your primary residence, you (or your estate) are required to pay back the lender for the funds you got from your reverse mortgage as well as interest among other finance charges.
