It's a fair offer, one they didn't have to do. The fact they are willing to make you feel whole says a lot, because monthly MI is not a protected (guaranteed) number. You got in at the right time, because rates are taking a beating with no end in sight.......but seriously......under 4%? They're still pretty darn good.

Seriously, pat yourself on the back for getting ahead of the curve.

Just wanted to update you all, we did sign the docs and follow through. We got a check back for the MI difference less than a week after the loan funded. All in all, this was pretty awesome timing as rates are back above 4%.

good for you, the loan officer seemed to at least make a effort to make things right...
at the rate housing prices are going up you should keep a eye out on the comps within your neighborhood, maybe you'll get lucky and get past 80% ltv sooner and put a little extra cash in your pocket....

just to clarify, 78% is when the lender is supposed to remove the PMI on their end, usually you can request the PMI to be removed at 80%. BUT you have to submit that request.
