Insurance

Thinking about purchasing a new home for the first time? If so, you should start looking into homeowners insurance while you are at it—it will likely be the best decision you’ve ever made.'

When you are buying a home, you may run into a number of hurdles to complete the purchase. One of the items that you may be asked to purchase is called private mortgage insurance, often shortened to PMI. This is a unique insurance policy that your lender, such as the credit union or bank, may ask you to buy in order to protect themselves. In this insurance policy, the bank protects themselves against losing money if you end up defaulting on your loan.'
