ANSWER
For a condo near Angelo State University, plan for three separate pieces: your ASU housing application timing if you’re living on campus, your condo loan closing requirements, and your own unit insurance even when the association covers common areas.
YOUR NEXT DECISION
Apply this to your housing budget
- Confirm whether the condo project is FHA-approved if you plan to use FHA financing.

For condo financing, shop the insurance piece early
The CFPB says lenders typically require homeowner’s insurance as a condition of the loan, and you can choose the insurance company. For a condo, the HOA or condo association usually covers master insurance for common areas, but you still need your own policy for your unit.
- Get written quotes from several companies and compare coverage, not just price.
- Share the quotes with your loan officer so they can confirm the lender’s requirements.
- Check whether separate flood insurance is needed, because standard homeowner’s insurance usually does not cover flood damage.
Check FHA condo approval before you rely on FHA financing
HUD’s condo lookup lets you search for FHA-approved condominium projects by location, name, or status. If you’re using FHA financing, verify the specific condo project there before you move forward.
- Search by Texas location, condo name, or status in the HUD database.
- Use the condo project’s exact name if you have it.
- HUD says detailed help is available on the page if the search needs refinement.
