NJ Buying House

FHA World - NJ Buying House FHA Mortgage.

Today’s historically low interest rates make now the perfect time to purchase a new home.

Getting an FHA loan has never been easier:

  • FHA loans offer simple credit qualifying
  • Simple processing
  • Simple terms
  • Low interest rates
  • Low down payment (3.50%)

First, you need to get pre-approved. This is an easy step and does not cost you anything. Also, this step is very important -- as many people search out homes on their own just to find out that the house they found is not in the price range that they qualify for. This approach turns into disappointment and lost time. Most realtors will only work with people who have been pre-approved.

Down Payment and Gift Funds

Down Payment - FHA mortgage requirements for a home purchase have a minimum down payment of 3.5% of the sale price. The down payment must be sourced and seasoned and must come from the borrower or the donor of gifted funds.

According to the new FHA Policy changes, which go into effect in early summer of 2010, FHA will require 10% down payment for anyone purchasing with a FICO score lower than 600.

Gift Funds - Down payment funds can be gifted from a relative, spouse, or a domestic partner. The gifted funds must be sourced and seasoned and cannot be borrowed by the donor.

Seller Concessions and Reserves

Seller Concessions - FHA mortgage requirements allow for seller concessions of up to 6% of the sales price.

FHA Policy requires the seller concession to be included in the sales contract. Example - Seller will pay up to 6% for closing cost.

Reserves - FHA does not have any financial reserve requirements on single family homes and duplexes. Three months of reserves are required on 3 to 4 unit family homes.
