At MWK Appraisals inc.,we can assist you in challenging your tax assessment.PMI removal to lower your mortgage paymentWhen the amount being loaned to the home owner is more than 80% of the actual value of the property, many lenders ask homebuyers to purchase an additional insurance policy. That policy is Private Mortgage Insurance, or PMI. Seeing that additional payment is usually bundled into the monthly mortgage payment, it is often forgotten. PMI is unnecessary when the leftover balance of the loan - whether through market appreciation or principal pay down - decreases below the 80% level, making this very unfortunate. In fact, the Homeowners Protection Act (HPA) of 1998 was approved by the United States Congress that requires lenders to remove the PMI payments on most mortgages when the balance is paid down to 78% of the original value.If you'd like to get rid of PMI, MWK Appraisals inc. will give you a statement regarding the value of your home. The price you paid for the home valuation can often be regained in little time because you'll no longer be paying the PMI.
