Home buyers looking to purchase via FHA financing in Atlanta need to act fast if they plan on taking advantage of the increase FHA loan limits set in the Housing & Stimulus Bill passed in 2008. That bill has set our single family limits at $346,250, but that number will be lowered to $320,850 starting in 2009. In addition to the decrease FHA will require a 3.5% down payment instead of the 3.0% that they are currently requiring. Here is a breakdown of Georgia’s 2008 & 2009 FHA Loan Limits :
