FHA Rates scheduled to increase in April

An increasing number of Buyers are purchasing their home using an FHA Mortgage.  FHA Mortgages enable a Buyer to put down as little as 3.5% of the Purchase Price and then to finance the remainder.  Effective in mid-April, the monthly "mortgage insurance" associated with FHA Mortgages is set to increase.  While this will not affect those with an existing FHA Mortgage, Buyers who are haven't yet gone through the application process may be impacted by this increase.
