If possible, try to put down at least 20% towards the down payment during your home purchasing process. While you may be able to buy a home with less than a 20% down payment, your lender may then require you to pay for a private mortgage insurance (PMI). PMI protects the lenders and lowers their financial risk in case the borrower defaults. Generally, you'll need to pay more PMI when your total loan amount is higher. However, certain factor such as your credit score, loan type, loan term, and loan-to-value ratio can all impact your PMI as well.This property is not listed for sale at this point in time but RealtyHop is constantly updating our inventory of available sales listings in real time.
