Frequently asked FHA questions.
How much do I need for an FHA loan down payment in Indianapolis?
Your down payment will partially depend on your credit score.
The higher your credit score, the lower your down payment can be. The minimum down payment for an FHA loan, however, is 3.5%.
The higher your down payment, the less interest you’ll pay over the life of your loan and less you’ll pay month to month.
Are there FHA loan limits?
The Federal Housing Administration changes the loan limit that it will insure each year.
The maximum, also known as the ceiling, and the minimum, also known as the floor, vary according to the cost of the area. To learn more about the limits in Indianapolis, talk to us!
Do I have to pay mortgage insurance with an FHA loan?
This depends on your down payment.
If your down payment is less than 20%, then you’ll most likely need to pay PMI. It's always best to ask your Mortgage Consultant about options and payments.
