@Beruk Lessanework I would also have someone take a look at the Freddie Mac BorrowSmart Program. This program has less down and depending on credit score the mortgage insurance could be cheaper with no upfront MIP. A lot of companies will push you into an FHA loan because that is the most profitable depending on if you deal with a Broker or a Retail loan company.
