Is the FHA about to raise the HECM lending limit?

Last week, the FHFA raised conforming loan limits for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, leaving some to wonder if an increase in HECM loan limits from the FHA will follow. If the FHA opts to increase the limit for the third consecutive year, it could be raised by about $46,000 to $726,525. How will this impact HECMs and what will it mean for the developing proprietary market?
