FHA Loans in District of Columbia and 3 more states

An FHA loan is a mortgage insured by the Federal Housing Administration, designed to make homeownership accessible to buyers with smaller down payments or imperfect credit. Down payments can be as low as 3.5% for qualifying borrowers, and credit requirements are more flexible than most conventional programs.

FHA loans are a common choice for first-time home buyers, but they are not limited to first-time purchasers — repeat buyers can use them too, as long as the home will be a primary residence.

Benefits of an FHA loan

• Options to refinance later through the FHA Streamline program

What to consider
