The FHA mortgage loan guidelines for loan qualification are the most flexible of all mortgage loans (OK, maybe not as flexible as this guy) that require less than 5% down payment. Although some of the guidelines have gotten more stringent, they are still the easiest loans on the market to qualify for today.
Following are the basic FHA loan qualification guidelines.
- Two Years of steady employment, preferably with same employer.
- Last two years Income should be the same or increasing.
- Credit report should typically have less than two thirty day lates in last two years with a minimum credit score of 620 or higher or in some cases no credit score at all.
- Bankruptcy’s must be at least two years old, with perfect credit since discharge.
- Foreclosure’s must be at least three years old, with perfect credit since.
- Your new mortgage payment should be approximately 30% of your gross (before taxes) income.
These are some of the most basic of FHA guidelines for qualifying for a FHA loan. If you have answered yes to most of these statements, you probably qualify for a FHA mortgage loan.
