Overview
FHA loans are a good option when you’re buying a home, refinancing an existing FHA loan, or need cash from your home’s equity. FHA loans have competitive interest rates, flexible credit terms, and require low minimum down payments. They are backed by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) and offered by private lenders like Freedom Mortgage!

Ask us what rate we can offer you
The rate we may be able to offer on your FHA loan is specific to you. Your interest rate is determined by whether you want an FHA loan to buy a new home or refinance your existing home. Keep in mind by refinancing, the total finance charges you pay may be higher over the life of the loan. Your rate is also determined by your credit score and income as well as the current mortgage market environment. Freedom Mortgage may be able to offer you a rate that is lower – or higher – than rates you see advertised by other lenders. Ask us today what FHA loan rate we can offer you!
