PMI Removal Appraisals New Jersey

Certified Appraisals to Cancel Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI)

When Good Value Matters, Don’t Guess it — Appraise It.

Save Money by Removing PMI the Right Way

If you purchased your home with less than 20% down, your lender probably required you to pay Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI) — a monthly fee that protects the lender, not you. The good news? You don’t have to keep paying it forever.

A certified home appraisal can help prove that your property has gained enough equity to qualify for PMI removal. At New Jersey Real Estate Appraisal Group (NJREAG), we provide fast, lender-accepted appraisals across New Jersey to help homeowners eliminate PMI and lower their monthly mortgage payments.

When to Get a PMI Removal Appraisal

You may be eligible to cancel PMI if:
  • You’ve paid down your mortgage and now owe less than 80% of the home’s value
  • Your home has increased in value due to market appreciation
  • You’ve made significant improvements that raised the property’s worth
  • You want to stop wasting money on PMI each month

Your lender may require an appraisal to verify your home’s current market value — and we provide the certified documentation they trust.

PMI is insurance required by lenders when your down payment is under 20%. It protects the lender, not the homeowner.
