Restores Five Percent Down Payment
Washington officials announced a reduction of FHA down payments from 7 to 5 percent on the first 10,000 of home value and from 27 to 28 percent on the balance up to 20,000. The move aims to revive a housing market hit by a long slump, with Congress also showing support for broader credit easing and a $244 billion potential expansion. Officials saw the shift as a trigger to spur home construction, though industry leaders cautioned it must be paired with further credit legislation to have a meaningful effect.
