FHA Loans: Affordable Financing for First-Time Homebuyers
Low Down Payments, Flexible Credit Requirements
The Ideal Solution for First-Time Homebuyers
FHA loans, backed by the Federal Housing Administration, are designed to make homeownership more accessible, particularly for first-time homebuyers and those with less-than-perfect credit. At Lender Capital Group, we offer FHA loans to help California residents secure affordable financing with lower down payments and more lenient qualification requirements compared to conventional loans.
Whether you’re a first-time homebuyer or looking to refinance your current mortgage, an FHA loan can be a great option to help you achieve your homeownership goals. With down payments as low as 3.5% and flexible credit score requirements, FHA loans make it easier to get approved even if your financial history is less than ideal.

Why Choose an FHA Loan?
Low Down Payment Requirements
With an FHA loan, you can purchase a home with as little as a 3.5% down payment, making it easier for first-time buyers and those with limited savings to afford a home. This is significantly lower than the typical 20% down payment required for conventional loans.
Flexible Credit Requirements
FHA loans are designed to help borrowers with lower credit scores qualify for financing. While conventional loans often require a credit score of 620 or higher, you may be eligible for an FHA loan with a credit score as low as 580.
Competitive Interest Rates
Despite the lower credit score requirements, FHA loans still offer competitive interest rates, ensuring that borrowers get an affordable mortgage.
Assistance for Refinancing
If you’re currently in an FHA loan, you can take advantage of FHA’s streamlined refinancing program, which allows you to refinance with less paperwork and quicker approval, making it easier to lower your monthly payments or change your loan terms.
More Lenient Debt-to-Income Ratios
With an FHA loan, lenders may be more flexible in terms of debt-to-income ratios, allowing you to qualify for a loan even if a larger portion of your income goes toward debt.
HA Loan Qualifications
FHA loans have more flexible qualification requirements compared to conventional loans, making them an ideal option for many borrowers. Here’s what you need to know:
Down Payment
The minimum down payment for an FHA loan is 3.5%, which can be gifted by a relative or obtained through down payment assistance programs, making it easier to afford a home.
Employment and Income
Lenders will typically look for at least two years of steady employment and a reliable income to qualify for an FHA loan. However, part-time work and self-employment can be considered as long as you can prove income stability.
Credit Score
You may qualify for an FHA loan with a credit score as low as 580, but if your credit score is between 500-579, you may still qualify with a higher down payment of 10%.
Mortgage Insurance
FHA loans require both an upfront mortgage insurance premium (UFMIP) and annual mortgage insurance premiums (MIP). These premiums help protect the lender in case of default and are typically added to your monthly mortgage payment.
