FHA lenders will provide mortgage loans to first-time buyers, even if they have average credit scores and low down payments. Our picks for the best FHA lenders include Rocket Mortgage, New American, Wells Fargo, Chase, and loanDepot.

Many or all of the companies featured provide compensation to LendEDU. These commissions are how we maintain our free service for consumers. Compensation, along with hours of in-depth editorial research, determines where & how companies appear on our site.
