FHA financing is a home loan program offered through The US Department of Housing and Urban Development. FHA financing allows borrowers to purchase a home loan using a 3.5% downpayment. 3.5% of what? When calculating the downpayment mortgage officers use the purchase price of the home. Example: the home’s price is $100,000 and the downpayment is 3.5% then the downpayment is $3,500. If the home is $400,000 then the down payment is $14,000.
