What is different in Florida

  • Wind and flood insurance count in the housing payment, so in coastal areas they can move the debt-to-income ratio as much as the price does.
  • Many Florida condos aren’t FHA-approved, and new condo safety rules have pushed some buildings out of approval while repairs are funded.
  • Florida Housing’s first mortgages and down payment programs, including Hometown Heroes, can pair with FHA.
  • Older homes may need a four-point or wind mitigation inspection for insurance, separate from the FHA appraisal.
