Current FHA mortgage insurance costs vs. those recently proposed. This proposal hurts affordability and increases long term costs for borrowers while not doing anything to help current insurance reserve depletion.
To be crystal clear. The proposal has no stated intention to use the full 1.55% maximum monthly MI - but it does include the "authority" to do so. If the intention is to restore the insurance reserves and those are decreased by dropping the upfront MIP, one could see that intention changing pretty quickly. However, for now, per David Steven's letter - monthly will go to .85% </= 95% LTV and .90% over 95% LTV. Thanks, blarrabee
