FHA 203B Loan
The FHA 203(b) loan provides mortgage insurance for primary residence purchases or refinancing. This program requires as little as 3.5% down payment with credit scores starting at 580. Ideal for first-time buyers, it offers lenient credit requirements, capped closing costs, and competitive interest rates while ensuring property safety standards through FHA appraisals.
FHA 203k Loan
FHA 203k loans finance home purchases and renovations in a single mortgage. Available as Standard or Streamlined versions, they cover structural repairs, kitchen/bathroom upgrades, and accessibility modifications. Borrowers can finance up to 110% of after-improvement value with 3.5% down, making fixer-uppers accessible while maintaining FHA insurance protections.
Reverse Mortgage
Home Equity Conversion Mortgages (HECMs) allow Texas homeowners aged 62+ to convert equity into tax-free funds. No monthly payments required, with proceeds usable for living expenses or medical costs. FHA insurance protects borrowers, and funds increase with home value appreciation while preserving ownership rights.
Construction Loan
FHA construction-to-permanent loans finance land acquisition and home building in one transaction. With 3.5% down and 96.5% LTV maximum, they cover materials, labor, and permits. Requires 620+ credit score and 12-month construction timeline. Converts to fixed-rate mortgage upon completion with no additional closing required.
Refinance Loan
FHA refinance options include rate-and-term adjustments and streamline processes. Borrowers can reduce payments with 97.75% LTV maximum or shorten loan terms. Streamline versions require no appraisal or credit check for existing FHA loans, while cash-out refinances allow accessing home equity for debt consolidation or improvements.

Questions
What is an FHA loan and how does it work?
FHA loans are government-insured mortgages requiring 3.5% down with credit scores as low as 580. The Federal Housing Administration guarantees lenders against default, enabling more accessible homeownership opportunities for Texans.
Can I qualify for an FHA loan with bad credit?
Yes, FHA loans accept credit scores down to 500 with 10% down payment. Our specialists help borrowers with past bankruptcies or foreclosures rebuild homeownership eligibility through FHA's flexible underwriting guidelines.
What's the difference between FHA and conventional loans?
FHA loans require lower down payments (3.5% vs 5-20%) and accept lower credit scores (580 vs 620+). They allow higher debt-to-income ratios up to 57% and include mortgage insurance premiums instead of private mortgage insurance.
How do FHA renovation loans work?
FHA 203k loans combine purchase/refinance and renovation costs into one mortgage. Borrowers can finance up to $35,000 for cosmetic repairs (Streamlined) or unlimited amounts for major structural improvements (Standard) with a single closing process.
What documentation is needed for FHA loan approval?
Required documents include two years of W-2s, 30 days' pay stubs, two months' bank statements, and government-issued ID. Self-employed applicants need two years of tax returns and business financial statements.
Can I use an FHA loan for investment properties?
No, FHA loans require owner-occupancy as primary residence. Investment properties and second homes don't qualify for FHA insurance programs, which focus on expanding primary homeownership opportunities.
