The correct answer is C) 22% Equity (78% LTV)! While you can request to remove PMI once you reach 20% equity (80% LTV), federal law requires lenders to automatically terminate PMI when your principal balance reaches 78% of the original purchase price. Removing PMI lowers your monthly payment without changing your interest rate!
