When To Apply For A Federally-Insured Mortgage

If you are eligible for a VA Mortgage Loan, it’s an affordable way to buy a home without having to pay mortgage insurance premiums in exchange for not having a down payment. Similarly, USDA Mortgage Loans are great for eligible buyers or homeowners who would otherwise not be able to buy, build, or renovate a home. And, as mentioned, FHA Mortgage Loans are popular among younger and first-time buyers because they permit people with a slightly lower than average credit score to qualify for home loans and the lower down payment option also makes it more affordable to buy your first home.


Alternatives To Federal Mortgage Programs

If you are not a veteran or service member, and don’t want to pay the mortgage insurance premiums associated with FHA and USDA loans, consider a Conventional Loan instead. Available with a fixed or adjustable interest rate, the Conventional Mortgage is a classic choice for homebuyers.
