            seller paid closing cost FHA

            I know a seller can pay my closing costs

            Can they pay my pre-paids?

            Can they pay my upfront FHA premium if I don't want to tack it onto the loan ?

            The max benefit I can receive from the sellers is 6% of sales price ?

            This is an FHA loan.
