FHA LOANS
Home loans provided by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) may make it easier for you to buy a home. For an FHA loan a down payment of 3.5% is required. Borrowers who cannot afford a traditional down payment of 20% or are unable to receive approval for private mortgage insurance may consider an FHA loan.

3.5% down payment required.
