How much does PMI typically cost?
PMI typically costs 0.5 – 1% of your loan amount per year. Let’s take a second and put those numbers in perspective. If you buy a $300,000 home, you would be paying anywhere between $1,500 – $3,000 per year in mortgage insurance. This cost is broken into monthly installments to make it more affordable.
Can PMI be waived?
If you weren’t able to put down 20% when you purchased the property, you can have PMI waived once you’ve built up enough equity over time. But your lender isn’t going to automatically cancel your PMI premium once you’ve reached 80% LTV. You’ll have to reach out and request it. Jun 29, 2021
