Fannie Mae plays a role in the mortgage industry by setting guidelines for lenders on when private mortgage insurance (PMI) is required for home loans. PMI is typically needed when a borrower puts down less than 20 of the home's purchase price. Fannie Mae's guidelines help ensure that lenders properly assess the need for PMI to protect against potential loan defaults.
To request the removal of private mortgage insurance (PMI) from your Fannie Mae loan, you typically need to have a good payment history, reach a certain amount of equity in your home, and submit a formal request to your loan servicer. This request may require an appraisal to confirm the value of your home.
FNMA & FHLMC are not insurers they buy mortgages in the secondary market. FNMA & FHLMC can "own" your mortgage but your mortgage would be insured by a "Private Mortgage Insurance" (PMI) Company.

When Fannie Mae buys your mortgage at an auction, it purchases the rights to your loan from the lender who originated it. This transaction allows Fannie Mae to provide liquidity to the mortgage market, enabling lenders to issue more loans. As a borrower, your mortgage terms typically remain unchanged, but your payments are now directed to Fannie Mae instead of the original lender. This process helps stabilize the housing market and make homeownership more accessible.

Popular spelling "say as you hear" Fannie Mae = Federal National Mortgage Association - FNMA Freddie Mac - Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corp - FHLMC
The main difference between Fannie Mae (FNMA; Federal National Mortgage Association) and Freddie Mac (FHLMC; Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation) is that Fannie May primarily buys mortgages issued by banks and Freddie Mac primarily buys mortgages issued by thrifts. A secondary difference between the two is that Fannie Mae started in 1938 as part of the "New Deal" and Freddie Mac started in 1970 in order to create competition in the secondary mortgage market.
