Analytical Proof & Invariants

Machine Precision
Governing Mathematical Formula:
Total Financed Loan = Purchase Price - Down Payment + (Base Loan × 1.75% UFMIP)

Step-by-Step Mathematical Derivation

1
Down Payment & Base Loan

Down Payment = Price × Down_Pct. Base Loan = Price - Down Payment.

2
Upfront Mortgage Insurance Premium (UFMIP)

FHA requires an upfront premium of 1.75%: UFMIP = Base Loan × 0.0175. This is customarily financed directly into the loan.

3
Annual Monthly MIP

For LTV > 95% on 30-year terms, annual MIP is 0.55%: Monthly MIP = (Total Financed × 0.0055) / 12.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can FHA mortgage insurance be canceled? +
For FHA loans with less than 10% down payment, annual MIP lasts for the entire duration of the loan term. To remove MIP, homeowners typically refinance into a conventional loan once their equity reaches 20%.
What is the minimum credit score for 3.5% down on an FHA loan? +
HUD regulations require a minimum FICO score of 580 to qualify for the 3.5% down payment program. Borrowers with scores between 500 and 579 require a minimum 10% down payment.
