Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in a mortgage payment?
A full mortgage payment (PITI) includes Principal (loan repayment), Interest (cost of borrowing), Taxes (property taxes), and Insurance (homeowners insurance). Some mortgages also include PMI (private mortgage insurance).
How much down payment do I need?
Conventional loans typically require 20% down to avoid PMI. FHA loans allow as low as 3.5% down. VA loans and USDA loans may allow 0% down for eligible borrowers.
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 price. It protects the lender and typically costs 0.3-1.5% of the loan amount annually.
