PMI stands for private mortgage insurance and is required when a borrower puts less than 20% down on a mortgage. It protects the lender if the borrower can't make their monthly payment. The insurance is tied to the monthly mortgage payment, usually around $200-300 per month. Borrowers with less than 20% equity in their home are considered riskier. Once you reach 22% equity in a conventional loan, PMI goes away. However, it does not go away on an FHA loan, and you have to pay it until the loan is paid off.
