VA Condo Approval

VA approval allows veterans to use their VA benefits to purchase or refinance a unit in a condominium association.

This type of loan is specifically designed to help veterans, active duty service members, and retired military personnel buy a home for themselves and their families or refinance into a more favorable loan. VA approval offers significant benefits for eligible veterans and can make homeownership more accessible and affordable.

WHY FHA?

TOP REASONS TO GET FHA CONDO APPROVAL

1

INCREASED POOL OF BUYERS

One of the main benefits of FHA Condo Approval is that it opens up a wider pool of potential buyers. Statistics show that most first-time homebuyers intend to use an FHA Loan, so if your community does not have FHA condo approval, you may be limiting your potential buyers.

It’s important to note that these buyers are not associated with low-income HUD programs like Section 8. In some counties, an FHA-insured loan can be used to purchase properties worth $1,000,000 or more. Since the recession, most American buyers have been using FHA-insured loans, and this trend is expected to continue for the foreseeable future.

2

INCREASED HOME VALUES

FHA Approved Condos have a wider pool of potential buyers, leading to increased competition and demand for these properties. This can drive up purchase prices and market value, ultimately boosting the value of all units in the community.

3

REVERSE MORTGAGES

FHA Certification is required to obtain a Reverse Mortgage (HECM). Many owners use these loans as a financial planning tool, and without FHA condo approval, they won’t be able to access this type of financing. Don’t let your unit owners miss out on this valuable opportunity.

4

FHA LOANS ARE ASSUMABLE

FHA loans are assumable, which means that a new buyer can take over the loan, including the interest rate, in the future. For units purchased with low interest rates, this can be a valuable asset for an HOA community.

5

FEWER RENTERS IN COMMUNITY

FHA-approved units are more likely to be occupied by owner-residents, rather than rented out. On the other hand, unapproved condos tend to attract buyers with large down payments who are looking to invest and rent out the property for a profit. Choose FHA approval to attract owner-residents and create a more stable community

6

MARKETABILITY

Realtors are more likely to show properties in FHA and VA Approved communities to their clients. These properties are easier to sell and often fetch higher prices than comparable unapproved associations. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to attract more buyers and get a better price for your units
