PMI or Private Mortgage Insurance is a way that lenders protect themselves from default loans.
Mortgages that have 20% or higher equity are much less likely to default on the loans. If you have less than 20% equity, the lenders require additional payments as PMI. These payments typically range from $130-$500/month.
PMI removal is a great way to save money. The first step is to figure out the value of your home. An appraisal report from a qualified professional is the best bet for determining fair market value. Zillow and CMA’s by realtors will not be accepted by Fannie Mae.
Steps for PMI removal:
Determine the value of your home
Make sure mortgage payments are up to date
Provide a written request to remove PMI
The second item you need to be aware of is that your mortgage payments are up to date. If they are not, this will be a good reason for the lender to deny you. Once you are set, you can write a letter to the lender requesting PMI removal.
Homeowners can often overlook the opportunity to remove PMI as it is a low payment typically bundled with the monthly mortgage payment. If you are currently paying PMI and believe you now have 20% equity in the home, have an appraisal performed to hopefully start saving money.
Remember, the cost of an appraisal for PMI removal is earned back in a matter of months due to the savings. Please contact American Realty Appraisals or call us now at 908-233-1337.
