   I dont think the CHFA loan is worth for the points that you are paying. About the PMI remaining at .5 %, my experience is that depends of the prime rate and upfront payment, along with the credit score.

   I would also suggest that you seek a mortgage expert in your area for an in-depth analysis of your income.

   Most conventional loans require you keep paying PMI on the loan balance until you pay off a huge part of the loan or until you prove (by paying for a new appraisal) that you have a very large equity. The exact percentages depend on the company making the loan but it is usually more like 30% or more.

   If you have 20% or more equity in the beginning then you are not required to establish PMI but getting it removed once you have it is much harder.
