Bought our house a year ago and was told 20% down would remove pmi. Asked again this week amount to remove pmi and was told it’s now 25%. Are they able to change that?

No. Check your loan closing / origination docs. Should state clearly in there. It’s about a loan to value ratio. Assuming since you are in PE you’ll know what that is. Bottom line is that changing that would be material unless it clearly states they can change those terms. That said, your home price may have dropped, but the bank would need to conduct an appraisal to validate that. I would:

1. File a complaint to your bank.
2. File a complaint on the CFPB website

Feel free to PM me - I am a former regulator.

I emailed the mortgage loan officer a copy of my closing docs regarding pmi. They forwarded it over to loan servicing for clarification. This below makes me believe WHEN the loan falls below 80% it should qualify for pmi removal with an updated appraisal.

Your LTV (Loan to Value) has to be at 80% or less.

Depends on the lender. Depending on debt to income ratio they may be able to make exceptions

This should be stated in your agreement. You can check your documents. Was it not discussed when you bought the house?

Hi,
28 with about only 30k saved till now. Have worked 2.8 years and I feel I’m so behind. I’ve tried to save on everything possible but my family commitments make me feel I will never be able to retire - I make 95k a year and started at 82 base and 14k sign on in 2019. From 2019-2020 I had to help a family memes out of debt (approximately 30k). I started saving more aggressively in 2020 but then realized I’ll have to support my dad who’s business went under (1K every month-he’s in India so low

Curious about thoughts on on discount points (I think I’ve already read every article on Google). I am refinancing my personal residence (future rental) as well as a rental property. The mortgage brokers discourage me from spending a ton on points (rolled in, not up front). In some cases, it’s a 16 year break even. I get that’s a very long time to break even, but I have no intention of getting rid of the properties and doubt rates will drop much below current. Max breakeven point for you?
