FHA Home Loans

Compared to other home loans, FHA is typically the most flexible mortgage product with lower minimums for down payment and credit score, while allowing a higher debt-to-income (DTI) ratio. A FHA loan is typically the best home loan option for first-time buyers who are not military veterans or the house is not in an eligible rural area designated by USDA.

GMFS Mortgage has funded over 26,000 FHA home loans.

Ashley and her team are awesome! In spite of the issues we faced in our construction process, Ashley made sure we never had any worries about our loan. She was knowledgeable, professional, responsive and a true lifeline for us. We are forever grateful for the personal attention she gave us, and for always treating us like our business mattered. We highly recommend her to anyone building or buying a home. Customer service at its finest!

This company was so easy to work with! Ashely and her team were prompt and very informative. Everything was easy and online, and with our hectic schedule we stayed on target and closed in a timely manner. They will be recommended to any in my circle buying a new home!

Darren did a great job. He was very knowledgeable and responsive througho the process. Toward the end of the process we did get some odd request from loan approvers (not Darren) which is why I rated the overall experience as ok and not great (i.e. requirement to make cosmetic vinyl siding repairs prior to closing).

From the first phone call I made Stinson supplied just the information I requested. And then I appreciate it, as well as I’m sure my clients did, that he came to the closing and was very professional and friendly. I enjoyed him very much as I’m sure my client did also.
