These days here in Connecticut as well as in many other states FHA Mortgages have become the main Loan product. Not long ago Conventional Mortgages were the loans of preference, but with all the changes brought about by Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac, Conventional Mortgages have become costly and difficult to do.
During this time I have written about these changes and how FHA in particularly has become the loan product of choice. These blogs are a little spread out so I thought that it was time to provide links to some of them so that they could be easily found.
Besides FHA, CHFA, VA and USDA Mortgages have also started to become more and more popular during this time. CHFA and USDA are proving to be a great loan for First Time Homebuyers, because 100% financing is available through them. But existing Homebuyers also have 100% financing available to them through VA Loans if they are a Veteran.
Below are links that provide details on all of these loan programs and their advantages. I hope that they prove to be of value to those looking for information on these loan products, and that the links serve as a good point of reference.
