I'm a financial planner and I wouldn't worry about this either. As for the city appraisal being low, don't fret. That not really the actual value of the house anyway. Welcome to home ownership, bud.

BTW, do not under any circumstances (well, generally not) buy mortgage insurance. There is a far better option.
