Why Sellers Are Not Accepting FHA

[Ryan DiCanio]

Hey Bigger Pockets Community,

I am running into the issue where I find properties through my analysis that I am interested in, but the seller is not accepting FHA loans from buyers. I have 2 questions regarding this:

1. Why does it matter to the seller whether I have an FHA or Conventional loan?

2. What can I do to mitigate the situation other than trying to switch to a conventional loan?

Any and all thoughts would be appreciated!
