Advice on finding an FHA Mortgage Counselor

Hi,

I've been searching online for an FHA mortgage counselor for over a month now; I'm working towards buying my first home to househack.

I completed a form online and a couple of weeks later, received a call from an FHA mortgage originator in Cranston, Rhode Island. I've been communicating with the gentleman for several weeks now, he's emailed me information on what he needs to qualify me for an FHA loan, however, I'm a little nervous because I live in Wisconsin.

Has anyone ever worked with an FHA mortgage counselor/originator in another state?

He was the first to contact me and by the time I was contacted by an FHA mortgage counselor in my state, I had already been communicating with the Rhode Island counselor for several weeks.

I haven't given any personal information yet but I wanted to ask here on BP to see what you all think....is it best to work with a mortgage counselor in your state or does it really matter?

Any advice is appreciated.

Thanks,

Heather
