Smart Choices for First-Time Homebuyers
Mortgages that aren’t insured by the government but conform to guidelines established by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. You can get a conventional mortgage loan with as little as 3% down, but you’ll need at least a 620 credit score to qualify.
Home loans insured by the Federal Housing Administration and provided by FHA-approved lenders. You can put as little as 3.5% down with an FHA loan if your credit score is 580 or higher. If you have a score of 500 to 579, you’ll need to put 10% down. FHA loans come with upfront and annual mortgage insurance premiums, usually for the life of the loan.
Mortgages backed by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) available to eligible military borrowers. VA loans require no down payment or mortgage insurance, but you must provide a VA certificate of eligibility to qualify.
