FHA charges two Mortgage Insurance Premium (MIP) fees:
  1. The current up front fee is 1.5% of the base mortgage.  This fee is "used up" over the first five years of the mortgage as described in FHA form HUD 92900 B.
  2. A monthly fee for a 30 year mortgage is equal to 1/2% of the mortgage balance per year.
