FHA Mortgage Insurance Premium Going Up

Lock in Before October 4th 2010

FHA is giving homebuyers until October 4 to lock in a low monthly insurance premium. After this date premiums will go up 63 percent. A homebuyer purchasing a $200,000 home using a $193,000 FHA mortgage before October 4 would pay an insurance premium of $88.46 per month. The same buyer waiting until after October 4 would pay $148.01. Although the upfront mortgage insurance premium is going down, there is an actual net increase in out of pocket costs because the monthly premium is going up by 63 percent.
