As noted by Paul above, VA is one alternative if you qualify. Another is USDA - Rural Development, which has some income limitations and would be for propperties outside of the metropolitan areas. There are also a couple of different alternatives to consider if you are refinancing your current home; both are fairly complex, but I would be glad to explain them if you give me a call or shoot me an email. 316-259-5862 or Mike@KansasMortgageExpert.com

Depends on your circumstance. If you are currently paying Mtg insurance now. If you are not and are just worried about the appraisal not comming out were you need it there is a program called refi plus that we can refinance the first mortgage without you having to get mortgage insurance. If you are currently paying mortgage insurance your options, as the others have said, are VA if you are a veteran, or lender paid mi which basically you are paying for the mortgage insurance upfront in the pricing. If you currently pay mi it may still be beneficial to refinance as rates are in the mid to low 3's for 30 year mortgages. We always do a detail cost benefit with breakeven analysis so a client knows what their benefit will be before refinancing. I am located in Topeka at 785-273-5004 or email kdwall@kdwallstreet.com if you are needing an analysis done.

There are a couple other options. You might try a small mortgage brokerage company which has access to a lot of different lenders. I have a couple referral lenders if you still need assistance.

If you are a veteran than you may be able to obtain a VA loan. FHA requires at least 5 year of mortgage insurance no matter what your loan to value is. Conforming loans allow you to avoid PMI at a loan to value less than 80 percent.

There is a program out called HARP. You might check to see if your previous loan was originated prior to Feb-Mar of 09. If it was - and you were not paying PMI with your current loan - there is a chance going forward that you could qualify for either a DU Refi plus loan or a Freddie Relief depending upon which entity holds your paper. You can check them by looking at this website http://www.makinghomeaffordable.gov/tools/does-fannie-or-freddie-own-your-loan/Pages/default.aspxIf your loan does not qualify for that - you can look to buy out of the MI by either doing a Lender paid/Borrower paid MI which eliminates the MI with either a one time up front fee or a higher rate than what you would normally qualify for. VA never requires mortgage insurance. If you are a Veteran this would be your best option at least with my bank in most cases.I would not suggest FHA unless you have no other choice because the FHA PMI rate almost doubles what you would pay with conventional in most cases monthly. 1.25% x loan amount divided by 12 would be your monthly rate. On conventional it usually ranges between .67 to .92 depending upon credit score.Happy hunting.

If your purchasing a home, then VA is the only program with no monthly MI.. as others have stated, you can do single premium, or lender paid MI, but with only 10% down.. You're going to pay it.. If your refinancing, and you don't have PMI now, you won't have it on your refinance if you home qualifies for HARP 2.0.. I'm a Broker here in Scottsdale AZ and I only lend in Arizona. If you or someone you know is looking for financing options, feel free to contact me or pass along my information. 480-287-5714 WilliamAcres.com
