FHA loans are great for buyers—but they come with stricter property standards. 🧾 Here’s how to make your home FHA-ready:
- Fix any peeling paint. Especially in homes built before 1978.
- Secure stair railings. Loose or missing? Install them.
- Make sure utilities are on and functioning. All major systems must be working.
- Eliminate trip hazards. Uneven sidewalks, broken steps—get them repaired.
- Ensure the roof is in decent condition. No leaks or excessive wear. 🛠️
Meeting these standards opens your home to more buyers—especially first-timers using FHA loans.
