Federal Housing Administration (FHA) mortgages were designed to assist homeowners in accomplishing their dream of home ownership. Along with VA mortgages, FHA mortgages will often be referred to as a government loan and therefore are not only one of the easiest types of mortgages to qualify for, but are also one of the most flexible.
Now that being said, not all banks are created equal when it comes to qualifying for a home mortgage, even an FHA mortgage. But remember, where the banks say no, we will say yes.
