What Is an LMI Waiver?
Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI) is typically required when you borrow more than 80% of a property's value. LMI protects the lender if you default but costs you thousands. So what is the good news? Some professionals can have this fee waived entirely, giving them access to higher loan amounts without the hefty LMI cost!
If you are a professional involved in essential work, you may be eligible to waive LMI and secure a premium interest rate. You can save thousands in upfront costs on your home loan.
