• FHA—An FHA mortgage is a great program for buyers. Its advantages are a low down payment without private mortgage insurance. The lender process can be streamlined, with no appraisal and reduced loan documentation to qualified applicants. • VA—A VA Mortgage offers many benefits, including no down payment and lower interest rates. • USDA—These are only available in certain areas deemed “rural” by the United States Department of Agriculture. Surprisingly, many properties on the outskirts of a metro area will qualify for these loan programs. The advantages of a USDA Mortgage are lower interest rates and zero down payment. Because Jacob is familiar with all of these loan programs, he can pre-qualify your buyers and ensure they obtain financing. That way, you avoid wasting time with buyers that will not qualify for financing. Before you sign a contract with a buyer, make sure you have them give him a call if they aren't prequalified.
