Protection: FHA Mortgage Insurance
Mortgage insurance protects lenders against any losses that may result from defaults on home mortgages they issued.
FHA mortgage insurance is "protection" for lenders who administer FHA loans.

Now is the time for an
FHA HOME LOAN
|
FHA mortgage insurance will be required on FHA mortgage loans, primarily for borrowers making a down payment of
less than 20 percent. It is charged to the homeowner each month at .5 percent per year of the total FHA loan amount.
FHA will also charge an upfront mortgage insurance premium of 1.5 percent.
Your FHA monthly mortgage insurance payments will be automatically terminated when:
- For mortgages with terms of 15 years and less, and with Loan to Value ratios 90 percent and greater, FHA annual mortgage insurance premiums will be canceled when the Loan to Value ratio reaches 78 percent, regardless of the amount of time you have paid the premiums.
- For mortgages with terms of 15 years or more, FHA annual mortgage insurance premiums will be canceled when the Loan to Value ratio reaches 78 percent, provided you have paid the annual premium for at least 5 years.
- For mortgages with terms of 15 years and less and Loan to Value ratios of 89.99 percent and less, FHA mortgage insurance will not be charged at all.
