FHA Loan Questions – What is FHA Mortgage Insurance and what is the refund?

John Thomas June 3, 2010

Many people are confused on how much and even if they can get a refund of the upfront mortgage insurance premium they paid to FHA when they obtained a FHA insured mortgage loan. The confusion comes because the date you obtained the mortgage determines what you are eligible for in terms of a refund. There are two important dates: January 1, 2001, and December 8, 2004. Watch this video for a complete explanation of the FHA upfront mortgage insurance and the monthly mortgage insurance:
