FHA Closing Costs

You should consider closing costs when you purchase a home through the FHA loan program. The FHA makes it affordable to purchase a home, which is why they allow you to finance up to 96.5% of the value of your home and down payment assistance. This allows you to purchase a home with only 3.5% down, and very few out-of-pocket costs are required to secure and close the mortgage loan.
