You can assume for monthly mortgage insurance on a transaction like this about 75 basis points.

For example a loan in the amount of $350,000 would represent monthly mortgage insurance of $218.75 per month using a barometer of 75 basis points for payment calculation purposes. You can also try mortgage payment calculator for a more accurate payment comparison.
