What is a FHA Loan

The FHA is here to support you on your journey toward homeownership. And it’s accessible to everyone, not just first-time home buyers. As long as you’re purchasing a primary residence, it doesn’t matter whether it’s your first or fifth time buying a home.

With an FHA loan, you can roll the insurance premium into your loan amount, making it easier on your bank balance. Plus, you’ll only need to pay a small percentage of the loan amount yearly, and that’s conveniently included in your monthly mortgage payment.

FHA loans are insured by the Federal Housing Administration. FHA strives to improve housing standards and provide an adequate home financing system by insuring mortgages. FHA loans generally allow homebuyers the ability to purchase homes with smaller down payments and more lenient qualifications than conventional loans. FHA loans are open to all qualified borrowers; they are a great option for borrowers with less than perfect credit.

  • 580 minimum credit score
  • Interest rates lower than conventional lending
  • Less restrictive guidelines so qualifying is easier
  • 2-4 Unit properties only require 3.5% down

What is a USDA (Rural Development) Loan?

If you’re looking to live in a rural area and that includes most of Montana-US Department of Agriculture (USDA), loans could be an ideal choice for you. USDA guarantees these loans, which means lenders can offer very competitive terms. We specialize in helping people like you take full advantage of these benefits.

This wonderful initiative aims to support low-to-moderate-income families who dream of owning their own homes in a tranquil rural area. With a USDA loan, occupying the property as your primary residence is important; you can only have one loan at a time.

There are no limits on how much money you can borrow, but there are maximum income and net worth limits per household.

  • No down payment required
  • Lower interest rates than conventional loans
  • Insurance rates lower than FHA and most Conventional loans
  • Lower funding fees

A Rural Development loan is a great option offered to rural property owners guaranteed by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). Those who qualify are able to get special financing options for sanitary housing for low to moderate-income households. You must meet financial, property, location guidelines. Not sure if the home you want to buy is located in a rural area? Ask Us!

  • This company has been the best I have used. I refinanced my home to take equity out to pay bills. They were able to close earlier than expected. The whole process for me, took less than 20 days. I would definitely use them again.

  • We have bought and sold and refinanced over 40 years of our life. Sam and Brad we’re very honest and forthcoming in the process of a refinance. Our home and property are a bit unusual and presented or could have presented “Hiccups” In the process. I had questions and concerns and to be honest I’m a bit fussy and too inquisitive. Brad was patient and again very honest with me. I rarely leave feedback or comments but due to the fair treatment I received I felt it only fair to give them a pat on the back, well done. JO
