3.5% is the minimum required. FHA does nto allow you to pay less than that
If you qualify for first time hoem buyer credit, you may be able touse that money towards the down payment.
Good lucak and feel free toask

you can take gift from your family members & use to pay it for down payment.
Source of Down payment is not verified so you can easily do it.
As a process you have to make down payment of 3.5%

It is mandatory for you to provide 3.5% down from your own funds for FHA loan.... You can get this down payment as a gift from your family member or any relative...
there is so much misinformation and so much nonsense thrown about.
eric, you must have 3.5% down payment. there is no "relaxation" about it. you may use your own funds along with funds from a gift from family, or even a non-profit concern that assists homeowners.
all money used for down payment and closing costs must be sourced. in other words, you have to prove where you got the money.

Are you the collector and corrector?
when things need to be corrected because of error or people being misinformed, there is a definite need.

3.5% is mandatory...
you cannot use the 10% homebuyer credit towards the 3.5%....
you can use the 10% homebuyer credit for down payment, but 3.5% has to be from your own funds (or gift from family member) and the bank will verify
hope this helps let me know if you have any more questions
