No PMI with Equity of 80% or greater
Good morning,
My question is likely easy to answer , but I myself am unsure about it
Here is an Example:
If you use any type of finance and put down anything Less than 20% down , then you will have PMI attached to you monthly note , yes ?
So an FHA loan , with 3.5% down would definitely have the monthly PMI attached to it
But, what if at the time that you purchase the property, that that property has 20% or greater Equity in It ?
So you buy the property for $80,000 and you put 3.5% down. The Property is worth ( appraisers for ) $100,000 ..... and so by this, there is already 20% of equity in the house .
So would the PMI Automatically be dropped from your note ?
Hope my question makes sense . And I really appreciate the feedback
