This is a browser-only estimate to help you plan. Michael “Wiz” Wisniewski pairs the math with real lender quotes, current tax and insurance figures, and a plan that fits your goals. No obligation, no pressure.

This is a browser-only estimate, not an approval. Rates, premiums, and fees are set by the FHA, VA, and your lender, and they change.

The FHA upfront MIP is 1.75% and the VA funding fee ranges from 0.5% to 3.3% depending on use and down payment; both may be financed into the loan. Veterans receiving disability compensation are usually exempt from the VA funding fee.

Eligibility and program details matter. Michael works with VA and FHA lenders he trusts to confirm your best option.
