How much can I afford with FHA loan in California?

It's a beautiful week-end in sunny San Diego and my phone has been ringing plenty which is always nice!
We are having multiple offers on properties in San Diego and Orange county. All price ranges are very active...as long as they are priced right! If they are over priced, they will not move!
By the way, if you were not aware, FHA lending allow you to purchase a home with as little as 3.5% down payment.

    If you are planning to own your dream home, one good option available before you is to take out a FHA loan. One important feature associated with a FHA loan is that the down payment amount is very low. However, you need to ensure that he mortgage loan is affordable to you. In order to calculate your affodability, you an take the help of a home mortgage affordability calculator.

    Loans Guide SA said...

    An FHA loan can be a good option if your credit score is less than perfect or you're a first-time home buyer. However, as such loans primarily serve low to moderate income families, there has always been a limit on the size of FHA loan you can avail for where the property is located.
