Fha or conventional? help please first time

I would like to avoid PMI. I have enough for about 11% down for the price range I'm looking at and a 715 credit score.

You would be best served, assuming you qualify for Conventional financing, to take the 90% LTV loan with Lender Paid MI (whereas the MI is included in the rate and not a separate payment), or, go with an 80/10/10 splitting your 90% financing into 2 loans and avoiding MI. Unfortunately, many of the 2nd trust now available will only amortize over a 15 year period to offset their risk which means your payment may be a little higher under this scenario, but at least its all going to P&I.I lend in WV so call me if you have questions, and we are a Lender.

If you have at least 10% down, go conventional (20% down is much better), otherwise, go FHA with 3.5% down.

You probably would want to look at a conventional loan with the mortgage insurance paid upfront or a split premium. You can also take a higher rate to offset the mortgage insurance.
