Are you paying PMI? If so, LISTEN UP
Private mortgage insurance is an extra charge you pay in your monthly mortgage payment when you have less than 20% equity in the home. For example, if you purchase a home with a 5% down payment you are likely paying PMI. The cost varies but it can be hundreds of dollars a month.
BUT did you know that if your homes value increases after you buy it your lender may let you remove the PMI from your monthly payment!! This is a HUGE cost savings. You’ll still need at least 20% equity to do so. But since we’ve seen an abnormal amount of home price appreciation the last two years you may be surprised with how much equity you actually have.
