Can I get a FHA?
The process of applying for an FHA loan is pretty much the same as applying for a conventional mortgage. You will need to provide verified proof of your income over the past three years – yet what qualifies as income is relaxed a bit. Social security, alimony, rent paid by other family members and such qualify as income under the FHA program. In addition, short-term debt doesn’t count against you (short-term is defined as being able to be paid off in less than 10 months).
