Anyone know what percent is the average amount applied to reduce the principle in a home lease to purchase contract?
For example, if the buyer of my home enters a contract like this with me, and I charge them $1,000 per month. How much of that is average for me to take off of the amount agreed u...

I want help with that if anyone has time to chime in with a good story about any of the up and coming guys on the depth chart. But...

| Where to find income tax status? - bojabu on 12/30/12 at 4:25 pm
I had a year in which I had to pay taxes, and where I couldn't get my EID to work, so I filed on paper. I ended up paying my federal in full on time. The IRS sometime later that year sent me a form back that I forgot to sign when I sent it off originally. Wife gets the mail, files it with all of our...

| PMI Calculations for Home Mortgage - bojabu on 11/29/12 at 2:47 pm
Using online calculators, I see that PMI is much higher when you put down less than (exactly) 5%. If you change that one dollar to make to 5%, the PMI drops by a large amount. Anyone know why this is, and if there is any other trigger like that built in at other %'s?...

I'm buyng a home, and was under the misguided impression that PMI was only needed when the home's appraisal value to equity (down payment) was less than 80%. Under further review, it's the purchase price, not value, unless you are refinancing. Is that correct? (Conventional mortgage)
