How to Check My FHA Loan Account

Every FHA loan account owner can and should keep a close watch on his account. Lenders who collect payments and maintain mortgage accounts are called loan servicers, and handle thousands of mortgage accounts. Posting errors, escrow payments, tax and insurance audits and lost checks are just a few of the reasons to follow up with your FHA lender. This is an easy task, thanks to the internet, but can be done by phone as well.
