That is not a lot of savings - when was your loan done? Are you sure you dont qualify for the lower PMI program?I was think about refinancing to a lower rate, but if I refiance my MI is going up to $133 from $57. It would take about 7 years to get my loan under 80%. Should I refinance my loan?

If the plan is to stay in the home forever then yes the lower rate onc PMI goes away would be great - if it is a step up house you will be moving out of I probably wouldnt do it unless I could get the PMI at the same rate as you have now.

I closed 08/2010. Is there away that I can keep my current MI rate, I am in California? I called two lenders and both told me that I would pay higher pmi rate if i refinance. I plan on staying in my home for a long time.
