PMI vs. 80-10-10 or 80-15-5 Loans |
|
|
Hello,
I'm buying a new home and I have received conflicting information regarding paying PMI versus paying 80-10-10 or 80-15-5. The loan is 30 year jumbo fixed, is it best to pay PMI or go with a 80-10-10 or 80-15-5 to avoid paying PMI? Thanks!

Otherwise there are spreadsheet functions that will do that, but they're a little more complicated to use. I always have to go into the help when I use those in Excel. You've got to know which numbers have to be entered as negative and which positive. It gets confusing. 
Thank you responding!
