I might be wrong here (I'm also a Realtor so I get the exception already) but if you are actively involved in the management of your properties, defined by some level of effort maybe 500 hours a year, then you too are exempt from the passive losses limit--essentially because they are not passive, they are from something in which you are actively engaged.If you do your own property management, fix-it stuff, and finances, you are probably exempt from the $25,000 / yr limit.

Mortgage insurance(PMI) is required by the type of loan you get.There are programs that don't require you to have insurance.If your not looking to cash out your equity for some time I would suggest obtaining a fixed rate,there are several different programs available that range from 30 yrs to 5 yrs.As for the appraiser not going with your brokers appraisor could also work againts you if the value comes in too low.Hope this helps :D
