The Federal Housing Administration (FHA) published translated versions of 19 single family mortgage documents used in the servicing of FHA-insured mortgages.
The documents are available in Chinese, Korean, Spanish, Tagalog, and Vietnamese on the FHA website. The agency had previously made 40 mortgage origination documents homeownership education resources available to consumers in the five languages.
“We continue to work to remove language access barriers for borrowers with FHA-insured mortgages,” said Federal Housing Commissioner Julia Gordon. “We believe it’s critical for borrowers to understand the options for purchasing a home and for accessing assistance if an existing borrower has difficulty in making their mortgage payments. With almost 60 mortgage documents translated into multiple languages, we now have a comprehensive collection of translated tools and resources for our program partners to use to more effectively reach those whose first language is not English.”
