How it’s worked out
  1. Base loan = price − down payment = $350,000.00 − $12,250.00 = $337,750.00
  2. Upfront MIP = 1.75% of the base loan = $5,910.63, added to the loan → $343,660.63
  3. P (amount borrowed) = $343,660.63
  4. r (rate per payment) = 6.5% ÷ 12 = 0.005417
  5. n (number of payments) = 30 × 12 = 360
  6. Principal & interest = $2,172.17
  7. Monthly MIP = base loan × 0.55% ÷ 12 = $154.80
  8. Total = $2,172.17 + $154.80 + $350.00 tax + $125.00 insurance = $2,801.97

Common questions

How much is FHA mortgage insurance?

Every FHA loan has an upfront premium of 1.75% of the loan, usually added to the balance, plus an annual premium paid monthly. For a 30-year loan up to $726,200 with less than 5% down, the annual premium is 0.55%; with 5% or more down it is 0.50%.

Does FHA mortgage insurance ever go away?

With less than 10% down, annual MIP lasts for the life of the loan, so most people refinance to drop it. With 10% or more down, it ends after 11 years.

What is the minimum down payment for an FHA loan?

3.5% with a credit score of 580 or higher, or 10% with a score from 500 to 579.
