Spring, TX -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/11/2015 -- AMCAP Mortgage - North Houston launched a new public awareness campaign, a company-wide effort that will continue for months to come. The new initiative revolves around spreading awareness as to the significant differences between conventional mortgages and those insured by the Federal Housing Administration, a distinction that is a source of confusion for many home buyers in the area. By helping to spread information about this important subject, AMCAP Mortgage – NHB aims to make it easier for families in the north Houston area to successfully realize their dreams of home ownership.

"The year is drawing to a close, but we're just getting started with some truly important work," AMCAP Mortgage – NHB representative Gerry Nicodemus said, "We think our brand-new public awareness campaign is going to have a major, positive impact throughout the community. While understanding just how an FHA-backed mortgage differs from a conventional one is not difficult, too many home buyers in the area simply aren't acquainted with the facts. Starting right now, we're going to be working hard to change that, and we'll keep up with the effort right into the New Year and beyond."

Having guaranteed over 30 million mortgages since it was first given the authority during the Great Depression, the Federal Housing Administration is the world's single most prolific insurer of this kind. Americans who qualify for this form of assistance can benefit from lower required down payments, along with more generous terms of other kinds, with the total package often standing out as an impressive alternative to mortgages of other sorts.

To do so, they must obtain financing through qualified, registered FHA lenders like AMCAP Mortgage – NHB. Serving families and home buyers throughout the Houston area with a special focus on those who live in the city's northern surroundings, AMCAP Mortgage – NHB regularly helps particular lenders decide which mortgage option will make the most sense, given their particular circumstances.

The company's new public awareness campaign will help spread the benefits of this expertise even further. By informing the general public about the requirements and terms of conventional vs fha financing, the company's mortgage professionals will help even those who have not yet specifically investigated the subject learn more about their options.

Those who are interested in reading more about the subject of FHA-backed mortgages or how they compare to conventional ones can do so now at the AMCAP Mortgage – NHB website, where a number of informative articles and guides can be found. Visitors to the site can also arrange for free consultations there and can even prequalify online in 10 minutes or less.
