What is PMI on a mortgage?

PMI is Private Mortgage Insurance. It is insurance for the lender in the event a borrower defaults on their mortgage payments. Any loan amount that is higher than 80% LTV (Loan-To-Value) requires PMI, as this is considered a "high-risk loan" for the lender. Examples: If a home appraises for $100,000, then PMI is required on any loan amount higher than $80,000. If a home appraises for $200,000, then PMI is required on any loan amount higher than $160,000. Exceptions to PMI: If you obtain a USDA loan or VA loan, then there will be no PMI required. Instead, there is a higher than normal "Funding Fee" included in the closing costs of the loan, but this "Funding Fee" can be financed into the loan (so you do not need to pay the "Funding Fee" up-front).

How do Private Mortgage Insurances pay off?

PMI is a policy a homeowner is required to carry until they have paid off a full 20% of the principal on their loan. Then the PMI can be dropped. Usually, the fee for it is divided into 12 yearly installments, with the monthly payment being built into your mortgage payment. PMI is protection for the bank against you defaulting on your loan. If you do, the bank gets their money back through the PMI policy.


If you have PMI and your mortgage company accepts a shot sale does the PMI cover the difference?

I am working on one now where the buyer did not have PMI, however, the lender purchased PMI. Subsequently, the buyer has defaulted on the loan and has listed the property as a short sale. We secured an excellent offer which was submitted to the lender. The lender came back and said the deal was accepted by the investors but needed be sent to the PMI company for approval. This is the first time in the four month process that we found out there was PMI on the loan. The PMI company wanted the seller to sign a Promissory Note for the difference. The seller refused to sign it and the PMI company has trashed the sale because of it. We are now offering a Deed In Lieu Of Foreclosre so the investors can keep the buyer. Does the PMI company have to approve the Deed In Lieu? I wonder what the PMI company has to gain by forcing a foreclosure if the seller will not sign a Promissory Note to them? The sad part is that the offer is excellent, the property is vacant and will continue to decline in value as the landscaping dies and as it becomes vulnerable to vandalism and general neglect.


Can your PMI go up on a fixed rate loan?

You PMI is an insurance policy that you purchase to protect the bank or mortgage company against the loss of you being foreclosed on. Generally, once you get to the point where you owe 80% or less than the value of the property financed, you will no longer be required to pay for PMI. You will have to question this with your bank continuously as they will not automatically remove this coverage. PMI helps you in absolutely no way possible. If you are foreclosed upon and your home is taken, the PMI company will pay the bank for their losses, take your home, then sue you for their losses. Get out of this asap.


What is the different between pmi and title insurance?

PMI and Title insurance are very different. PMI is mortgage insurance for a deposit below 20% on the banking instrument (loan), which is why 80/20 financing eliminates PMI. On the other hand title insurance covers the ownership of the property, if a long lost distant relative with possible claim to the home through the previous homeowner shows up to claim the property, title insurance takes care of this.
