Frequently Asked Questions

What is PMI and when is it required?

PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) is required when your down payment is less than 20% of the home’s value. It protects the lender in case of default.

How are property taxes calculated?

Property taxes are calculated based on your local tax rate and the assessed value of your property. They’re typically paid monthly as part of your mortgage payment.

Can I remove PMI later?

Yes! PMI can be removed once you reach 20% equity in your home, either through payments or increased property value.

Are insurance costs included in the mortgage?

Yes, homeowners insurance is typically included in your monthly mortgage payment and held in escrow by your lender.
