FHA mortgage rates are not set by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) and vary among mortgage lenders, banks, and mortgage brokers approved to originate FHA insured mortgage loans. FHA was established in 1939 to help lower and moderate income families afford housing with lower down payments, and longer loan terms.

Credit requirements for FHA mortgage loans are more lenient than those of conventional financing offered by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. FHA does not have a minimum credit score, however most lenders and banks will require a minimum credit score of 620 – 640 in order to provide an FHA mortgage loan.

FHA mortgages only requires a 3.5% down payment amount when purchasing a home. This is up from the 3% required a few years ago but is still lower than the 5% required by Fannie Mae under conventional financing. FHA mortgage loans also allow the entire down payment amount to be a gift from a relative, and will allow the seller to pay 6% of the sales price towards closing costs and pre-paid items.

The lower fha down payment requirements, and higher maximum seller allowed contributions have helped millions of home buyers with little to no money who have good credit and pay their rent on time. It has become harder to qualify for fha mortgage loans but not as difficult as Fannie Mae loans for lower to middle range credit score borrowers.

FHA has set loan limits that vary by county. The FHA mortgage loan limit for your property will depend on the county in which the property is located. You can get the new FHA loan limits for 2011 following this link https://entp.hud.gov/idapp/html/hicostlook.cfm Most notably are the decreases in loan limits for the “high cost areas” established by congress as part of HAMP. Other areas of the county also have seen decreases in maximum FHA mortgage loan limits. Check your limits before looking at houses if you are going to use FHA financing.

FHA Streamline Refinance Rates

         

The FHA streamline refinance loan gives the current fha loan holder the ability to refinance with out obtaining a new appraisal.  FHA is allowing the borrower to convert the existing fha loan to a new fha loan with a longer term ( not greater than 10 years) and a lower payment.  You can not do an fha streamline refinance loan to shorter terms with out completing an appraisal and qualifying on credit and income.  FHA will not allow this.  The idea is that you are lowering your payment and thus will be able to afford the lower payment.  

FHA has changed guidelines effective April 2010 and now will only allow the principal balance of the current loan plus 30 days interest, plus the new FHA up front mortgage insurance premium, minus any refund from FHA on the FHA upfront mortgage insurance premium you paid on the existing fha loan.  

Streamline Your FHA Mortgage                 

FHA has permitted streamline refinances on insured mortgages since the early 1980's. The "streamline" refers only to the amount of documentation and underwriting that needs to be performed by the lender, and does not mean that there are no costs involved in the transaction.

The basic requirements of a streamline refinance are:                 

 The mortgage to be refinanced must already be FHA insured.                 

 The mortgage to be refinanced should be current (not delinquent).                 

 The refinance is to result in a lowering of the borrower's monthly principal and interest payments.                 

 No cash may be taken out on mortgages refinanced using the streamline refinance process.                 

Lenders may offer streamline refinances in several ways. Some lenders offer "no cost" refinances (actually, no out-of-pocket expenses to the borrower) by charging a higher rate of interest on the new loan than if the borrower financed or paid the closing costs in cash. From this premium, the lender pays any closing costs that are incurred on the transaction.

Lenders may offer streamline refinances and include the closing costs into the new mortgage amount. This can only be done if there is sufficient equity in the property, as determined by an appraisal. Streamline refinances can also be done without appraisals, but the new loan amount cannot exceed the original loan amount. Investment properties (properties in which the borrower does not reside in as his or her principal residence) may only be refinanced without an appraisal.

Detailed instructions to the lenders are contained in HUD Handbook 4155.1 REV-4, Change-1, Paragraph 1-12.
