Buying a Colorado Springs Investment Property with an FHA Loan

When buying your next Colorado Springs home, an FHA loan may be a great option… even when looking to buy and investment property.

What is FHA?

According to the HUD website:

“FHA loans have been helping people become homeowners since 1934. How do we do it? The Federal Housing Administration (FHA) – which is part of HUD – insures the loan, so your lender can offer you a better deal.

  • Low down payments
  • Low closing costs
  • Easy credit qualifying

What does FHA have for you?

Buying your first home?
FHA might be just what you need. Your down payment can be as low as 3.5% of the purchase price, and most of your closing costs and fees can be included in the loan. Available on 1-4 unit properties.”
