Standard FHA-insured mortgages require the home buyer to put up a down payment of at least 3.5 percent of the purchase price. This is one of the lowest down payment levels available for mortgages. To get an FHA loan with a 3.5 percent down payment, the home buyer must have a FICO credit score of at least 580. HUD increased the minimum score for a minimum down payment FHA loan from 500 to 580 in January 2010.
