How do I remove PMI on a conventional loan?

You can request cancellation once you reach 20% equity based on the original value or a new appraisal, and it falls off automatically at 22% equity by the original schedule. You must be current on payments.
Florida's rising values often get owners to 20% early, and a fresh appraisal can prove it. We'll tell you when to request cancellation and whether an appraisal is worth ordering.
Removing conventional PMI
Conventional PMI is temporary. Reach 20% equity and you can request removal in writing. At 22% equity, the lender must drop it automatically.
Equity comes from paying down the loan and from rising home value. Both count toward the threshold.
Speeding it up in Florida
Florida home values have climbed in many areas. That equity can qualify you for early PMI removal. A fresh appraisal proves the new value.
