FHA Loans

What Are FHA Loans?

A Federal Housing Administration (FHA) loan is insured by a government agency called the Federal Housing Administration, and offers financing to borrowers who may not be able to qualify for traditional loans. This loan is popular among first-time home buyers and those with less-than-perfect credit, as it requires smaller down payments and feature more flexible terms.
