Roy,  The last thing we need is more fees on FHA loans.  darn! I understand why they need to do this but I sure don't welcome it.

We will be seeing increased fees with many of the mortgage loan products.  Those that purchase now have the opportunity to avoid some of the higher costs.

.75 to 1.75 points for a new origination fee is a lot of money!  And to think loan officers still charge those 2 points on the back end, that will be almost 4 points for the entire cost of the loan!  Highway robbery!
