Borrowers could potentially save hundreds under the new mortgage insurance premium reduction set to take effect later this month.

An analysis finds borrowers could potentially save an average of $446 a year.

The analysis found those with the biggest potential annual savings resulting for the reduction would be in southern California and Hawaii.

Mortgage insurance is what a borrower pays when making a down payment of less than 20-percent.
