When working with the calculator, please remember the dollar amounts displayed aren’t guaranteed, and what you actually pay may be different. The estimates you receive are for illustrative and educational purposes only.

Points

Money paid to the lender, usually at mortgage closing, in order to lower the interest rate. One point equals one percent of the loan amount. For example, 2 points on a $100,000 mortgage equals $2,000. Sometimes referred to as discount points or mortgage points.

Mortgage insurance

For conventional loans, insurance that protects the lender if you default on your loan. If your down payment is less than 20%, most lenders will require you to pay mortgage insurance. Also called private mortgage insurance (PMI).

Escrow account

An escrow account may be required to cover the future payments for items like homeowners insurance and property taxes. They do not represent fees; instead, they establish the funds needed to properly service your loan. The property taxes and homeowners insurance premium will be the same regardless of the lender you choose.

Origination fee

A fee charged by a lender to cover certain processing expenses in connection with making a mortgage loan. Usually a percentage of the amount loaned (often 1%). The origination fee is stated in the form of points.

Prepaid interest

Prepaid interest represents funds for the initial payment of interest on your loan. Prepaid interest varies depending on which day of the month you close. It covers the interest that accrues on your loan from your closing date until the last day of the month.

Loan assumptions and disclosures

Loan amount

The amount of debt, not including interest, being assumed by taking out a mortgage.

Interest rate

The cost of a loan to the borrower, expressed as a percentage of the loan amount and paid over a specific period of time. The interest rate does not include fees charged for the loan.

Principal and interest payment

The principal is the amount of money being borrowed, also called the loan amount. The interest is the cost of borrowing the principal. Principal and interest account for the majority of your mortgage payment, which may also include escrow payments for property taxes, homeowners insurance, mortgage insurance and other costs.

Escrow payment (taxes & insurance)

Money collected from the borrower by the lender (typically as part of the monthly mortgage payment) in order to pay property taxes and homeowners insurance premiums.

Annual percentage rate (APR)

The cost of a loan to the borrower, expressed as a percentage of the loan amount and paid over a specific period of time. Unlike an interest rate, the APR factors in charges or fees (such as mortgage insurance, most closing costs, discount points and loan origination fees) to reflect the total cost of the loan.

The Federal Truth in Lending Act requires that every consumer loan agreement disclose the APR. Since all lenders must follow the same rules to ensure the accuracy of the APR, borrowers can use it as a good basis for comparing loan costs.

Property taxes are a fixed percentage based on the tax assessor’s appraised value of your home that you pay to the county in which the home is located. The specific percentage varies dramatically from county to county in every part of the country. You pay this tax annually, semiannually or as part of your monthly mortgage payments (escrow). The local county tax assessor’s office can give you the rate for your county.  Depending on when you close your loan, some of this property tax is typically due at the time of closing and calculated as a prepaid amount.

You will also need to provide the initial premium for your homeowners insurance policy. In some cases this may include flood, earthquake or other insurance coverage as well.

We’ll keep you informed about cash to cover prepaid expenses for your new loan and property.

Estimated escrow account funds

An escrow account may be required to cover the future payments for items like homeowners insurance and property taxes.

The property taxes and homeowners insurance premium will be the same regardless of the lender you choose.

Note: As taxes are due at various times, the deposit needed for taxes may vary from 2 to 8 months. If you are purchasing your home, the seller may be responsible for a portion of these taxes.
