Switching loan term from conventional to fha loan how long is the process?

Pretty quickly. Probably under 30 days. If I might ask is there a particular reason you would like to refinance to an FHA loan?Kelvin WaitsVP of Mortgage LendingGuaranteed Ratekelvin.waits@guaranteedrate.com

Most lenders will be able to complete the transaction in under 30 business days.

30 days would be average, but converting a conventional loan to FHA has very little benefits.. Regardless of your loan to value or equity position, FHA requires you pay mortgage insurance, and FHA has the most expensive mortgage insurance of any loan product. The only way to eliminate the MI is to pay off your loan or refinance it.. With conventional financing, the MI is Half or lower than FHA, and once you make 24 payment and obtain 20% or more equity, you can have MI dropped without having to refinance..

Should be about 30 days. The bigger question is why do this? is it an loan to value issue?

it's not a long process depending on if the appraisal is done or not. If the appraisal has already been completed then the appraiser must be able to do FHA appraisals; otherwise you will need another appraiser qualified to do FHA. If you are switching to FHA due to score and need a 2nd option, please let me know if I can help.Best regards,Patty HarrisonSmart Mortgage630-854-3459
