PITI

The acronym PITI refers to principal, interest, tax and insurance.  These are the components of the monthly mortgage payment you’ll be making.  If you purchase a property that is a part of a homeowners association, co-op, or condo, we might use the acronym PITIA where “A” refers to the association payment additionally that is due and paid separately.
