Or are you having trouble meeting your monthly mortgage payment and would like to reset your ARM (Adjustable Rate Mortgage)? FHA refinancing can help you to achieve it all. FHA refinancing is basically backed by the Federal government. These loans typically have much lower rates than conventional loans which result in much lower payments. The mortgage and refinance mortgage are typically offered for 30 years at fixed rates which provide you with predictable payments for the next 30 years, unlike conventional ARM loans offered by other banks which may have the payments change every month.FHA does not issue loans but insures the residential mortgage.
