FHA Loan MIP
What is the FHA Loan MIP?
There is an up front mortgage insurance premium (MIP) on all FHA Loans that equal to 1.75% of the loan amount (1.5% for an FHA Streamline Refinance). THis FHA Loan MIP is paid at settlement. This 1.75% fee can be financed into the total loan amount. In most cases, this mortgage insurance premium is included in your loan amount, so you are really paying it over the life of the loan. In addition, on loans with a term of greater than 15 years and a loan-to-value ratio of 90% or greater (meaning you are borrowing more than 90% of the value of the home), you will pay an annual mortgage insurance premium of of the loan amount in monthly installments.
