Pressed For Space: Exploring Mortgage Options | August 5, 2024 | News 19 at 5 p.m.
SUMMARY: Students in Madison County return to class on August 7. As the area’s population grows, finding housing can be challenging, especially with high interest rates. Traditional mortgages are most common; however, many buyers are turning to alternatives like FHA and VA loans. FHA loans assist those with lower credit scores but come with mortgage insurance costs. VA loans benefit veterans with no down payment and lower average interest rates, enhancing homeownership accessibility. Local mortgage brokers emphasize that understanding one’s financial situation is crucial before searching for a home. Resources are available to help home buyers navigate their options.
Huntsville and Madison County’s population is growing by the day, and financing can be tricky for people looking to find their next home.
