Episode notes:

Are you still paying PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) on your mortgage? So was I! I figured out a way to eliminate it WITHOUT paying off the required 20% of my home loan... it took me under an hour and cost about $200 to implement, and I saved us $90/month over the next 6 or so years! If you bought your home at the right time and it makes sense for you to follow my steps, then give it a shot! Speak with your lender to discuss your specific situation to make sure an appraisal is a good option for you and your future financial goals... it certainly was for me!
