FHA Loans FAQ

What credit score do I need for an FHA loan?
Generally 580 for 3.5% down (500–579 may qualify with 10% down). FHA is designed to be more forgiving than conventional financing.
What is FHA mortgage insurance (MIP)?
FHA loans carry an upfront and an annual mortgage insurance premium. I'll show you the real monthly cost and when refinancing out of it makes sense.
