Amendment in the nature of a substitute offered
by Mrs. Biggert.
09/18/07 1:44 PM
An amendment in the nature of a substitute numbered 7
printed in House Report 110-330 to reform the Federal
Housing Administration's (FHA) single-family mortgage
insurance activities and would allow FHA to base each
borrower's mortgage insurance premiums on the risk that
the borrower poses to the FHA Mortgage Insurance Fund,
with slight variations. Under this proposal, mortgage
insurance premiums will be based on the borrower's credit
history, loan-to-value ratio, debt-to-income ratio, and
on FHA's historical experience with similar borrowers.
This amendment maintains FHA reserves within the insurance
fund to preserve the future solvency of the FHA program.
