FHA loans, which are backed by the Federal Housing Administration, are most common among first-time homebuyers, who can take advantage of their low down payment minimums. These loans allow for as little as 3.5 percent down at closing.
Because FHA loans are meant to give a leg up to those who may not be able to afford a home otherwise, they have limits based on the county where the loan is originated. Below are the 2017 FHA loan limits for single-family homes across every county in Minnesota.
Keep in mind that some cities may span several counties; your REALTOR® or lender can help you determine the loan limit for specific properties that are near the county line.
