Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI)

« Back to Glossary Index

Insurance to protect the lender if you can’t pay your loan. Most lenders require this if your down payment is less than 80% of the purchase price. You pay this insurance every month along with your mortgage payment. This insurance is different from Homeowners Insurance, as it ONLY protects the lender.
