In some cases this is governed by state law, in other cases by the rules of the lender themselves. You would have to discuss this with your lender. In general, it would usually be better to do it through them. Certainly easier!

It comes under the category of Contract Performance Insurance and is in the Property and Casualty line. The term "private mortgage insurance" differentiates it from government insurance. Loan products such as FHA, VA and USDA Rural Housing loans also carry insurance but it is from the government and is built into the cost of the loan, rather than being purchased seperately.Answer:It is insurance that the lender forces you to buy if you do not have enough equity in the property (usually 20%).
