The backer said that we would own to salary $100 extra a month for the insurance on our house loan?

This doesn't make sense! is this true? is there a passageway to avoid this, or should we talk to another banker?
Answers:
As far as I know, you are not obligated to take out mortgage insurance if you don't want it.

In fact, the policy depreciates much, much faster than the loan amortizes, so it's merely worth the investment for the first few years.
What kind of insurance are they requiring ? Your sound out isn't clear.
Yes, this is call mortgage insurance. If you have less than 20% brass down your lender may require mortgage insurance. After a history of regular payments it is possible to get the requirement dropped or you can refi. Yes, it is possible to obtain a loan minus mortgage insurance, but you may pay a higher rate. Shop around a bit and engineer sure you read the fine print. Avoid loans with adjusting rates, balloon payments, and stocky pre-payment penalties. Those loans will cost you more than the $100/month.
Due to so many foreclosures, if you do not put down a minimum of 20% down you need to income mortgage insurance. That protects the lender. To avoid, take a VA loan or put down at least 20%. Make sure you take a fixed rate and not a variable rate (that is why so many cannot afford thier house payment). Source(s): Just found out from lenders myself.
