If the 200k represents your life savings, then you shouldn't put it all towards the house. Put enough down to avoid PMI, save an emergency fund and a home improvement fund (and really try to build that into your monthly finances).

If it represents only your house savings, I'd play with a mortgage calculator and a compounding interest calculator.

And yes for a home, you ideally want to avoid PMI, you need to think about repairs and improvement projects and tools/contractors, property taxes, and homeowner's insurance.
