Should I take out a home-equity line of credit to pay down my mortgage to eliminate PMI?
Filed Under mortgage
Melissa O asked:
My husband and I are currently paying PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) on our mortgage. (We have no second mortgages.) I know we need twenty percent equity in order to eliminate PMI, but I don’t think we’re quite there. Is taking out a home-equity line of credit to pay down the mortage a good idea? I know that we’d then have two loans to pay, but the PMI would be eliminate and all of our payments (minus the interest) would be going toward the loan rather that insurance. Is it possible to get a home-equity line of credit for 6%?

Rather than take out a second mortgage why don’t you just pay the additional money toward the principal every month. That way you are paying down the principal, saving yourself from paying the additional interest and increasing your equity. Talk to your bank and see how far you need to go to get to the 80%. Also, don’t just assume once you get to the 80% that the bank will automatically knock off the PMI - you need to tell them in writing.
For more than you would just pay extra to go toward the principal on your first mortgage there is to pay extra to the principal on your loan and make sure they know it is to pay and dont understand.
