NO fha charges mortgage insurance each month for the life of the loan, VA loan fee is one time and can be wrapped into the loan.

these 3 are excellent better than the big banks and can pre-approve you in a couple of days and are direct lenders (no awful take a number wait 2 weeks for responses like the big bank or credit union experiences)
