Good Morning!
FHA has made it official…
With the passing of H.R. 5981 and the resulting Public Law 111-229, FHA was given authority to change the amount charged to borrowers for both the Up Front and the Annual premiums. These changes as outlined in Mortgagee Letter 2010-28, are effective for all case numbers assigned on or after October 4th, 2010.
Here are the 6 things you need to know about these changes:
1. The Up Front premium is now 1.0 % for all standard FHA programs
2. The Annual premium is now .90% for LTVs GREATER than 95% on 30 year loans
3. The Annual premium is now .85% for LTVs EQUAL to or LESS than 95% on 30 year loans
4. The Annual premium is now .25% for LTVs GREATER than 90% on 15 year loans
5. The Annual premium is now .00% for LTVs EQUAL to or LESS than 90% on 15 year loans
6. These premiums apply to purchases, regular refinances and streamlines
If have questions about how this may affect you – just give me a call or shoot me an email and I’ll be happy to go over it with you.
Have a good day today! …and thanks for reading.
