FHA Seller Paid Closing Cost Changes

FHA Seller Paid Closing Cost Changes:

FHA is reducing seller paid closing costs stating that they are continuing to manage total risk. By lowering the FHA seller paid closing costs buyers and sellers will not feel pressure to inflate the appraised value. This should not be a surprise for real estate professionals because HUD has been suggesting changes for over a year now. You will most likely see 3% maximum seller paid closing costs.

HUD is trying to improve the quality of business (risk.) According to HUD, they have had two very strong years of business and they intend on improving that this year!
