FHA Repair Requirements in Texas: What Can Slow Down Closing

Think of this as a pre-approval conversation starter. It will not replace underwriting, but it can help you ask better questions.

Step 1: Start with the real payment

Do not stop at purchase price. Include taxes, insurance, HOA dues, mortgage insurance, and any program costs.

Step 2: Clean up the file

• Ask which FHA item controls the answer.
• Check credit, income, assets, debts, and property condition.
• Confirm whether gift funds, seller credits, or assistance fit the file.
• Do not make an offer until the lender explains the weak spot.

Step 3: Ask what could delay closing

Example: a buyer can look strong in one area but still need a cleaner explanation for income, deposits, debt, property condition, or program rules. That is why the exact lender question matters.

Step 4: Keep the next links handy
