FHA Loans

Florida homebuyers who are in the market for a loan with a low down payment and excellent terms will want to consider applying for an FHA loan. With an FHA loan, your down payment minimum is 3.5% in most cases.

What Are FHA Loans?

An FHA loan is a government-backed loan from the Federal Housing Administration. This program makes it more affordable and accessible for qualified buyers to purchase a home.

Benefits of FHA Loans

With the FHA insuring your loan, lenders know you are not as risky an investment as you might have been if you were applying for a conventional loan without such backing.

That can translate to some fantastic benefits:

The down payment on an FHA loan is 3.5%.

FHA loans feature lower interest rates.

Qualify without perfect credit.

Choose between fixed and adjustable rates.

While FHA loans are used primarily for home purchases, you can also use them to refinance. With an FHA loan, you can use the equity you’ve earned to help improve your payment/term or pay off debt.

Premier Lending Corp can assist you with any of these types of FHA loans.

Who Qualifies for FHA Loans?

Think you can only qualify for an FHA loan if you are a first-time homebuyer? Actually, it may surprise you to learn that FHA loans are more widely available than that. Many repeat buyers use them to finance their purchases. They are ideal for consumers buying their first homes, but they are not limited to first-time buyers.

Here are the eligibility criteria:

  • A minimum credit score of 580.
  • Proof of income dating back a minimum of two years.
  • No bankruptcies within the past two years.
  • No foreclosures within the past three years.
  • A clear credit alert interactive voice response system (CAIVRS) report.

FHA loans are only to be used on primary residences. They cannot be used for part-time vacation homes or additional homes you are purchasing as investments.

I cannot recommend the Premier Lending Corp team highly enough! From start to finish, the entire experience was exceptional. The team was professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely committed to making the mortgage process as smooth and stress-free as possible. Their communication, attention to detail, and willingness to go above and beyond truly set them apart. They made sure everything was explained clearly, answered every question, and gave me confidence throughout the entire process. It is clear that they genuinely care about their clients and take pride in what they do.

Erika was absolutely amazing throughout our entire home-buying process! She worked incredibly hard to help us get approved and reach the closing table, even when unexpected challenges came up. She was always patient, knowledgeable, responsive, and willing to explain everything clearly. There were moments when I honestly thought purchasing our home might not happen, but Erika never gave up on us. She continued looking for solutions and did everything possible to make it work. Thanks to her dedication, we are now homeowners! My family and I are beyond grateful for everything she did for us. This was such an important moment in our lives, and Erika played a huge part in making it happen. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a lender who truly cares about her clients and will work tirelessly for them. Thank you so much, Erika—you are truly the best!

We had such a great experience working with Nurys! She was incredibly quick to respond, communicated so well, and stayed on top of everything throughout the entire mortgage process. She made what is normally a stressful process feel smooth and manageable. Any time we had a question or felt unsure about something, she was always there to explain it and reassure us. She was very informative without ever making us feel overwhelmed, and she was genuinely just so nice and easy to talk to. We really appreciated how involved and on top of everything she was from beginning to end. We are so thankful for all of her hard work and for helping make our home-buying experience such a positive one. We would absolutely recommend Nurys to anyone looking for a mortgage professional!

My wife and I worked with Jordan at Premier Lending Corp to obtain a loan for a new home purchase. Jordan and his team were the ultimate professionals throughout the journey. Jordan was very proactive and responded almost immediately to any questions or concerns that popped up along the way. I will definitely look to use Premier Lending for any future lending needs.

had an outstanding experience with this team. They- They put together a truly smart financial strategy, to help me secure my mortgage under great conditions. And what impressed me the most is that even after closing, they continue to provide support whenever I need anything related to the house. That ongoing support has made all the difference for me. I highly recommend them.

I purchased my first home through Premier Lending Corp and worked very closely with Alexis & Freddy. Freddy was very patient with me throughout the process and answered every question I had at any time, evenings, weekends. He found the best options for me at every turn and even when we hit a snag toward the end with the appraiser and the bank, he went above and beyond to try and resolve it for us to get the ball moving. I was definitely super satisfied with Premier Lending Corp and working with Freddy & Alexis. I highly recommend them to anyone who is looking to purchase a home. They are the best.

We were fortunate to work with Jordan Nicolosi for applying for mortgage to buy a home in Florida. We started working with him since the end of 2025 to just get prequalified for the mortgage. Jordan was very supportive and helpful in each step from starting to the end. The communication in each step was very clear and if we did not understand he would explain until we got it. I can’t tell how many times we texted and asked him so many question and he was always ready to explain. We felt very confident under his guidance and how he walked us through step by step. After closing on our house we look back and say this could have been a difficult and stressful process if it wasn’t for all the help we received from Jordan Nicolosi. Jordan and his team are shining stars. They are awesome👍 Thank you Jordan we sure do appreciate ever you did for us and made our journey uneventful! Sam and Jyoti Bishir
