The largest portion of your payment goes toward repaying the loan (principal) and compensating the lender (interest). With a fixed-rate mortgage, this amount stays the same every month, but the ratio of principal to interest shifts over time.
Michigan property taxes vary significantly by municipality. Your lender typically collects 1/12 of your annual tax bill each month and holds it in escrow. The default of $4,000/year is a Michigan average; check your specific community for actual rates.
Lenders require homeowners insurance to protect their investment. Michigan averages around $1,500/year, but costs vary by home value, location, and coverage level. Your lender collects this monthly via escrow as well.
If your down payment is less than 20%, lenders require PMI to protect against default. PMI typically costs 0.5% to 1% of the loan amount annually. It can be removed once you reach 20% equity in your home.
