What credit score do I need to buy a home in Utah?

Credit requirements vary by loan type. FHA loans accept scores as low as 580. Conventional loans typically require 620+. VA and USDA loans have flexible credit requirements. Contact us for a free consultation to discuss your options.

How much down payment do I need?

Down payments range from 0% (VA and USDA loans) to 3% (Conventional) to 3.5% (FHA). The right amount depends on your loan type, financial situation, and goals. Higher down payments can mean lower rates and no mortgage insurance.

What is the difference between rate and APR?

The interest rate is the cost of borrowing the principal loan amount. The APR (Annual Percentage Rate) includes the interest rate plus other costs like mortgage insurance, closing costs, and points, giving you a more complete picture of the total cost.
