What Is Mortgage Insurance?

Mortgage insurance protects the mortgage lender or loan program against part of the risk of borrower default.

Mortgage insurance may be required when a buyer makes a smaller down payment or uses a mortgage program with an insurance requirement.

A conventional mortgage may include private mortgage insurance, commonly called PMI. An FHA-insured mortgage may include an upfront mortgage insurance premium and recurring annual mortgage insurance collected through monthly payments.

Mortgage insurance protects the lender or insurance program. It is different from homeowners insurance, which covers eligible damage or loss involving the property.

Mortgage Insurance Calculator FAQs

Helpful answers about PMI, FHA MIP, upfront premiums, cancellation and monthly mortgage payments.

The calculator multiplies the selected mortgage balance by the entered annual insurance rate and divides the result by 12. Actual providers may use different premium calculations or rounding methods.
PMI generally refers to private mortgage insurance on a conventional mortgage. FHA mortgage insurance is associated with FHA-insured financing and may include both upfront and recurring premiums.
Some mortgage structures permit eligible upfront insurance costs to be added to the mortgage balance. Financing a premium increases the amount on which mortgage interest is calculated.
For many eligible conventional mortgages, a borrower may request cancellation at a specified balance and automatic termination may apply at a lower scheduled balance. Payment history, property value and other conditions may apply.
FHA mortgage insurance follows program-specific duration rules rather than the conventional PMI cancellation estimate. Use the insurance-duration field provided by your lender or servicer.
With lender-paid mortgage insurance, the borrower may not see a separate monthly insurance premium. The cost may instead be reflected in a higher mortgage interest rate or another pricing adjustment.
The result includes the entered property taxes, homeowners insurance and HOA dues. It does not include every possible closing cost, assessment, utility or property expense.
No. Actual premiums depend on the insurer, loan program, credit profile, down payment, occupancy, property type, lender and final underwriting.
