More Ways to Qualify. More Ways to Move Forward.

Think you need 20% down to buy a home? Not when you work with Insignia. With over a decade of experience in FHA, VA, and community lending programs, including options for buyers in majority-minority census tracts (MMCT), we make homeownership more accessible and affordable for qualified borrowers.

We Put Homeownership Within Reach

Many buyers assume they’ll need a massive down payment or a perfect financial profile to qualify for a mortgage.

The reality? FHA loans allow as little as 3.5% down, and VA loans offer zero-down options for eligible buyers. Insignia also helps qualified borrowers access specialized community lending programs that offer reduced down payments, expanded eligibility in MMCT areas, and competitive fixed rates that aren’t available through most lenders.

Whether you’re buying your first home or refinancing, we’ll help you choose the loan structure that fits your goals and long-term plans.

Case Study: 100% Financing for First-Time Buyers in Los Angeles

The Situation

A two-income family wanted to purchase a $750,000 primary residence but preferred to conserve cash for savings and renovations. One borrower was self-employed, which made qualifying for a conventional loan more challenging. They also needed to close quickly and lock in a competitive 30-year fixed rate.

The Solution

Insignia Mortgage identified a community bank offering a program for buyers in designated census tracts that provided up to 100% financing. We structured the loan to meet the program’s unique criteria and secured a zero-point loan with no upfront or monthly mortgage insurance—delivering both speed and value.

The Results

  • $750,000 loan amount
  • 30-year fixed-rate mortgage
  • 5.65% APR
  • Zero points, no mortgage insurance
  • Zero points, no mortgage insurance
  • Closed in just 14 days
