  • Taxes, PMI, insurance, etc

    Are there any quick and easy methods to estimating these to determine a house payment? I'm not FreightTrain rich, so I have to budget.

    I'm trying to see what my payment may be.

    Will this be sufficient?

    House: ~150k
    PMI: 1.35% / 12
    Taxes: 3000 / 12
    Insurance: 1000 / 12

    + principle and interest

      Seems kind of pointless with low interest rates. Couldn't you use the cash to invest in other means that yield a higher return?

      You must be selling a bunch of mustangs rofl

      I know.. Sarcasm

        Use our simple mortgage calculator to quickly estimate monthly payments for your new home. This free mortgage tool includes principal and interest, plus estimated taxes, insurance, PMI and current mortgage rates.


        You can look up actual total tax rates by county, and your insurance is about right...

                  PMI will vary greatly (over a point) depending on loan type, LTV, and credit score. The rest, as stated, is not far off.

                      LTV?

                      Loan would prob be FHA and credit is excellent.

                        Loan to value, the ratio of the amount of the loan to the value of the house you are buying.

                        Your insurance is probably a bit high too but I'd use that number just to be conservative.

                          PMI is of no concern, everyone here puts more than 20% down....

                            PMI just pisses me off. You're flushing that down the toilet. Not sure with FHA, but there other options.

                              FHA 30 year will be 1.35% of loan amount / 12.
                              FHA also has a 1.75% UFMIP (Up Front Mortgage Insurance Premium) which is financed into your loan amount as well.

                              Big change coming June 1st, if you do not put 10% down on FHA you will no longer be able to remove your PMI once you reach 78% loan to value.

                              If you have excellent credit and can put the extra 1.5% down, go conventional. The MI factor is .9X% and it is a removable charge once you get down to 78% loan to value.
