Was your mortgage application flagged when you tried applying? Not anymore!

If you or someone you know has been denied an FHA home loan, your path forward just got easier.  

What changed?

The Federal Home Loan Administration (FHA) has stopped placing a warning flag on applications from homebuyers with prior FHA loan rejections.

Previously, the FHA system flagged a rejected borrower's record for six months. If the homebuyer tried again with another lender, the flag led to a longer, more stringent review or even to an immediate dismissal.

What now?

If you or someone you know has been denied for an FHA home loan, it's a great time to try again. 

What's different about FHA loans?

FHA mortgage programs often allow lower down payment amounts and accept lower credit scores than other loan types.

What are FHA Loans

FHA loans are insured by the Federal Housing Administration. These loans are designed to help first-time homebuyers and experienced homeowners alike by providing them with a low down payment option. FHA mortgage insurance serves as protection for lenders in the event of a homeowner defaulting on their home loan.

How Can FHA Loans Benefit You?

FHA insured loans often give potential homeowners the option of making a lower down payment than they would need to make if using a traditional, non-FHA insured mortgage.
