What are the FHA loan disadvantages?

If you’re considering an FHA loan, pay attention that borrowers have to pay two insurance premiums which adds to the total sum of expenses. The UFMIP is worth 1.75% of the loan amount, while the MIP ranges between 0.45% to 1.05% of your loan amount. Nevertheless, while both premiums are required, you may be able to get a discount on the MIP if you have a good credit score or if you make a large down payment.
