FHA fees to Increase April 9, 2012 for future Highlands Ranch Homeowners

By Michael Garard • April 6th, 2012

FHA Fees to Increase on Monday.  The upfront insurance premium charged on FHA-insured mortgages for home purchases will increase from 1 percent to 1.75 percent on April 9, and the annual FHA mortgage insurance premiums will rise by one-tenth of a percentage point.

The cost of a $200,000 FHA mortgage will rise by about $24 a month, this equates to $288 per year, and about $8,600 over the life of a 30 year loan, assuming the borrower includes the upfront charge in the amount financed through a 30-year mortgage.  Also on tap is a fee increase for jumbo loans and some 15-year loans will be added June 11.

The fourth fee increase in the last three years should boost the FHA’s reserves by more than $1 billion through 2013, according to HUD.
