Compare the Savings on a 10% Down $600k Purchase, With and Without Mortgage Insurance<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

On this $600k home purchase example, we will compare the savings on a conventional 10% down loan, with and without monthly mortgage insurance, and a FHA 10% down loan with monthly mortgage insurance.<\/p>\n

To calculate property taxes, we will also use 1.2% of the purchase price, so $600 a month, and $85 a month for a homeowner\u2019s insurance policy, so we can calculate what the total monthly PITI (principal and interest, taxes and insurance) <\/strong>payment is for each scenario.<\/p>\n

Option #<\/span>1.<\/strong>\u00a0The figures on the first column, is a conventional 10% down loan with No PMI. The rate on a conventional 30 year fixed with No PMI is 4.25%.\u00a0The total monthly PITI payment is $3,341.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Option #2.<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0The figures on the second column, is a conventional 10% down loan with PMI. The rate on a conventional 30 year fixed with monthly mortgage insurance is lower at 4.125%,\u00a0but there is also monthly mortgage insurance of $311.<\/strong>\u00a0The total monthly PITI payment is $3,613.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Option #3<\/strong>.<\/span>\u00a0The figures on the\u00a0third column, is a FHA 10% down loan with monthly mortgage insurance.

Only 5% of the funds have to come from the buyer,\u00a0the other 5% down can be gifted.<\/strong><\/p>\n

3. What credit score is required to qualify for this program?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

We only require a 660 credit score to qualify for this loan program.<\/strong>\u00a0Please note, the lower the credit scores the higher the interest rate will be.<\/p>\n

4. How do you Eliminate the Mortgage Insurance?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s very simple. All you have to do is take a slightly higher interest rate, from 4.375% to 4.625% (see example above), and we use a lender credit with the higher interest rate to eliminate the monthly mortgage insurance from your payment. So now the mortgage insurance is paid by the lender.<\/p>\n

5.\u00a0 Can you get 10% down with No PMI on 2nd homes or Investment Properties?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

No,\u00a0the 10% down is for Primary Residences only<\/strong>. On 2nd homes, you only have to put down 15% to obtain the No PMI payment option. On investment properties this program is not available, as you have to put down 20%, which eliminates the Mortgage insurance anyway.<\/p>\n

10. What if I put down 15%, do I get a lower rate?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Yes, if you put down 15% as a down payment, you will get a lower interest rate.\u00a0Essentially the larger the down payment, the lower the interest rate you will get with all conventional loan programs.<\/strong><\/p>\n

11. Can I finance a higher loan amount with 10% down?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Yes,\u00a0we have a loan option where buyers can finance a loan up to $3 million with only 10% down and No PMI,<\/strong>\u00a0so now buyers only have to put down 10% instead of the usual 20%, to eliminate the PMI on a jumbo loan to $3 million. Ask me for more details on this loan option.<\/p>\n

REFINANCE TIP for Homeowners <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

These programs with No PMI also work the same for refinances, as homeowners with limited equity can now refinance up to 90% or 95% of their home value with No PMI.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

For example, many homeowners who bought a home over the past 12-24 months using a FHA loan or a loan with monthly PMI, have probably gained at least 10-15% equity again due to appreciation.\u00a0 So this loan program is a great option to help them refinance out of their current loan with mortgage insurance, and into a NO PMI option, and save some extra money and get a lower monthly payment.<\/p>\n

We have been able to help many of our clients who bought a home over the past 2 years with a loan with mortgage insurance, refinance into a loan with No monthly mortgage insurance and save on average $200-$300 a month, or convert their loan into a 20 or 25 year fixed using the same monthly payment.<\/p>\n
