Yes, it is a good option.
But you should compare FHA as well as conventional 90%

A good loan officer will compare them for you.

no offence, but those loans a part of what got us into this mess. Are you really able/want to to handle mortgage payment on 3 loans for how many years? Many foreclosures are approved for homepath financing with only 3% down. that seems like a better option.
