Today 12/23/11, FHA declared that the 90 Day Flip rule be waived and extended up to 12/31/2012, unless withdrawn or extended by FHA in Arizona and California.
As you can already know many Arizona and California investors, agents and buyers are glad to know that the less than 90 Day FHA Flip Rule has been extended. I hope that FHA comes to their senses and gets rid of the less than 90 Day FHA Flip Rule in Arizona and California, all together. The less than 90 Day FHA Flip Rule was originally enacted to prevent the predatory practice of property flipping in Arizona and California; this means properties that are quickly resold at inflated prices to unknowing Arizona and California borrowers and where the property does not meet FHA's standards that protects Arizona and California home buyers from possibly costly repairs and/ or the property is deemed inhabitable; but with FHA's less than 90 Day FHA Flip Rule waiver, FHA have enough safe guards in place that this would prove to be very difficult to do.

Over the past 2-3 months, Congress has taken action and passed H.R. 5981. This bill gives FHA the authority to adjust it’s annual mortgage insurance premium yielding approximately $300 million per
month to the FHA Mutual Mortgage Insurance Fund at a time when its reserves are perilously low. As a result, FHA has decided that effectively on October 4, 2010, the UFMIP (Upfront Mortgage Insurance Premium) and the Monthly Insurance Premium will change in order to meet the demands of future FHA Homeowners.
What does this mean for you and how does it affect your ability to qualify for an FHA Loan in Arizona?
A portion of your (UFMIP) Up-front Mortgage Insurance Premium is moving from being financed on top of the amount financed (your loan), into a higher amount of monthly mortgage insurance payments through the period of time you carry MI. For many future FHA Homebuyers, this is a very good thing since the total “LOAN TO VALUE” will be less than the outgoing formula. To simplify the equation, the following is an illustration of the current and new FHA Fees based on a 3.50% down payment:
