🏠Proposed Changes to FHA Mortgage Insurance Premiums Impacting Business

On March 31, 2016, HUD published a notice reducing mortgage insurance premiums (MIPs) for qualifying loans under three newly established MIP rate categories: Green and Energy Efficient Housing, Affordable Housing, and Broadly Affordable Housing. On January 20, 2025, President Trump signed a presidential memorandum, "Delivering Emergency Price Relief for American Families and Defeating the Cost-of- Living Crisis", which directed agencies to deliver price relief to the American people, as well as an Executive Order on Unleashing American Energy. To meet these goals, this notice proposes to reduce MIPs to 0.25% for all FHA Multifamily Insurance Programs. This notice further proposes to eliminate the MIP categories established in 2016, which are misaligned with the presidential memoranda and would become economically obsolete.
