Q: Isn’t it harder for houses to qualify for an FHA mortgage than a traditional mortgage?
A: FHA has eliminated most of the barriers to a property qualifying in January of 2006. The only thing we still find pretty consistently in NC is a problem with “out buildings.” If an outbuilding appears to have lead paint (meaning it hasn’t been painted for 20 or 30 years or the paint is PEALING) then it will have to be repainted prior to closing, even if it’s not the “home” you will be living in.
Generally speaking, however, if a home is in good enough condition to qualify for a traditional mortgage, it will also qualify for an FHA mortgage.
Q: Do I have to use one of FHA’s Preferred Real Estate Specialists in Asheville?
A: You are not required to work with a Preferred Real Estate Specialists to buy a home with FHA financing in Asheville. You may work with any Real Estate agent you choose. We do work with TOP real estate agents in the Asheville / Waynesville area, and offering you the option of working with someone we already know is just another way that we help you become a homeowner.
Q: Can the 3.5% downpayment be a Gift or can I get a Grant?
A: Yes! You can get a gift for the FHA Downpayment in Asheville, you can also get a Grant, or you can get Downpayment assistance from the State. Additionally, the Seller is allowed to pay most closing costs for FHA loans in Asheville.
