Can I cancel PrivateMI?
Yes. PrivateMI usually can be canceled when the homeowner builds up enough equity in the home. In fact, 90 percent of borrowers cancel their PrivateMI within 60 months. Under federal law, PrivateMI on most loans made on or after July 29, 1999, will end automatically once the mortgage is paid down to 78 percent of the original value of the house.
