Great News!
Home Ownership in Corvallis and Albany just got more affordable.
FHA announced this morning in mortgagee letter 2017-01 that they are dropping the monthly mortgage insurance premium. The annualized rate was .85% and it will now be .60%, a reduction of .25%. On a 250,000 FHA loan, that would mean a monthly savings of over $52 per month (That is over $18,700 for the life of the loan). That is a much needed savings for many Corvallis and Albany first time home buyers.
This is effective for loans FUNDED on or after January 27th.
