Points

User23

Points are fees that are charged by a lender in order to reduce the interest rate on your loan (1 point = 1% of the loan amount, 2 points = 2% of the loan amount etc.) Typically, buyers compare the difference in the monthly payment and divide the dollar cost of the points to reach a break even point. Points may also be used to buy out a prepayment penalty, when applicable, giving the borrower the freedom to refinance as interest rates decrease.

Points are tax deductible in the year in which they are paid or they are prorated for refinance transactions. For further information, consult with your tax advisor.

Prepaids
