Good News FHA MIP Cost Goes Down


 










The monthly FHA MIP premium will drop 30 bps for loans funded after 3/20/23. 

The monthly MIP cost will drop by $121 for a $500,000 purchase with 3.5% down.

 

This was a long time coming. Former HUD Secretary Julián Castro 

had scheduled the cut to take effect in 2017, as FHA’s capital reserves

 were above the 2% statutory levels needed. 

The change was rescinded by the incoming administration on January 20, 2017.

 

FHA’s capital reserves today are above 11%,


When do you hear prices go down?

Still wishing eggs and gas prices decreased...

 

Good news for FHA buyers!
