Default Re: Private Mortgage Insurance or HELOC?

Taking out a home equity loan also allows you to deduct the interest on your taxes. One cannot deduct PMI.

I honestly think that there is just a general aversion to PMI and that banks probably do make more money on home equity loans. Just my opinion.
