FHA Loans: A Flexible Path to Homeownership

April 3, 2025
Est. Reading: 2 minutes

Owning a home is one of life’s biggest milestones, and at Rally Credit Union, we’re making that journey easier with FHA loans. Whether you’re a first-time buyer or looking for a more accessible financing option, an FHA loan can help you get the keys to your dream home—with less stress and more savings.

Why Choose an FHA Loan?

  • Accessible Financing Options – FHA loans are designed to help more people qualify for homeownership with just 3.5% down and more lenient credit score requirements.
  • Flexible Down Payment Options – Not only is the minimum down payment just 3.5%, but you can also use gift funds.
  • Easier Qualification – FHA loans have more lenient credit and debt-to-income (DTI) requirements, making homeownership possible for more people.
  • Shorter Waiting Periods After Financial Hardships* – If you’ve experienced a bankruptcy or foreclosure, FHA loans typically have shorter waiting periods before you can qualify again.
  • A Variety of Home Options – FHA loans allow you to purchase different types of homes, including multi-unit properties, provided you occupy one of the units as your main residence.

Homeownership Starts Here

At Rally Credit Union, we believe in making home financing simple and accessible. With an FHA loan, you can secure the financing you need, even if you’re working on building your credit or saving for a down payment.
