Summary
FHA loans have helped many buy their new home with the benefit of loan flexibility and rate security. Featuring down payments as low as 3.5%, the FHA program is more lenient than a conventional mortgage. So, if you have a below-average credit score or other qualification problems, it might be your best option.
