902 - Mortgage Insurance
Private mortgage insurance (PMI) is required by lenders when your loan-to-value ratio (loan amount divided by property value) is greater than 0.8 or 80%. This insurance protects the lender in case the value of your property decreases to the point where it is worth less than your loan balance. The lender typically requires that the borrower prepay two months premium. We have estimated your premiums using industry standard rates for the type of product you selected and your loan-to-value ratio.
