  • Down payment, loan-to-value (LTV): 3.5%, 96.5%.
  • Credit score minimum: Typically 580 or greater. 
  • Debt-to-income (DTI): Typically 45-50% or less. 
  • Upfront mortgage insurance of 1.75% the base loan amount is required. 

Annual mortgage insurance premiums of varying percentage are also required, and paid monthly. New FHA borrowers, however, will receive annual MIP rates of half a percent lower than the original rate, typically 1.35%.
