What is Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI)?
In the event you are borrowing more than 80% of the value of a property from a Suncorp Bank, you will have to pay what’s called Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI). LMI is a cost that protects the bank in the event you are unable to pay your mortgage.
LMI is not a premium you have to pay upfront nor pay every year or monthly. The LMI is added on to your mortgage and you will pay it off with the rest of your mortgage over time.
