After all, some lenders just want you to call them so they can turn on their marketing machine and hope to get your mortgage loan. But you do see one lender who offers a loan with no costs at all. How can they do that when other lenders charge fees? At Poli Mortgage Group, we specialize in no fee mortgages.
Good question by the way; how do they do that?
First, understand that lenders set their interest rates each and every day on the very same index. If one bank offers a 30 year fixed rate mortgage loan underwritten to Fannie Mae guidelines then another bank who promotes the very same mortgage will base their rates for that day on the exact same number. That’s why one lender can’t be at 2.00 percent and everyone else is at 3.00 percent under the very same set of fees.
Second, all lenders can offer a variety of interest rate selections for the very same loan program. For example, a lender can offer 3.75 percent, 3.50 percent and 3.25 percent for the exact same program. The only difference is how much the lower interest rates cost the consumer in terms of points and associated costs.
Third, all lenders typically have their own set of internal fees they charge their borrowers. Common lender fees will include a loan processing fee or an underwriting fee. Whatever the charge, these fees are assessed the borrower to offset the additional overhead lenders incur when evaluating loans for approval.
And fourth, some lenders offer no fee loan options almost all the time. If you’re seeking a no fee loan combined with great rates, you’ll want to call Poli Mortgage Group! At Poli Mortgage we believe that no fee loans equal happy customers and happy customers refer their friends and families. This is how our business was built.
When the overwhelming majority of your business comes in the form of a referral from happy customers, you do more business and when you do more business you’re able to offer the best available terms to all that qualify!
With those four facts in mind, let’s look at a typical rate quote example for a $300,000 30 year fixed rate loan from two lenders.
Rate Points Lender Fees Mo. Pymt
Lender A 3.50 % $-0- $1,000 $1,347
Lender B 3.25% $3,000 $1,000 $1,305
Which is the better deal? Lender B’s monthly payment is lower by $42 but costs $3,000 more than Lender A. It would take nearly six years to see the net result of the lower payment due to the reduced fees charged by Lender A. Lender A looks like it might have the better deal.
Now let’s throw a wrench into the equation, a no-cost quote from Lender C.
Rate Points Lender Fees Mo. Pymt
Lender A 3.50 % $-0- $1,000 $1,347
Lender B 3.25% $3,000 $1,000 $1,305
Lender C 3.625% $-0- $-0- $1,368
Lender C has a higher payment than Lender A by $21 and Lender B by $63. But again, the difference is in the fees charged. Lender C charges no points and no lender fees for a savings of $4,000 over Lender B and $1,000 over lender C.
The difference between Lender C and Lender A is 47 (months) and Lender B is 63 (months). Again, you can get lower payments from Lenders A and B but you have to pay more for the lower rate. Which one to choose?
Again, at first glance the lower payments seem to be the better choice but you also need to consider how much you’ll have to pay in order to get those lower rates.
Finally, understand that all lenders can offer a no-fee loan; it’s simply a correlation of interest rate, loan volume and advertising costs. Now you understand why Poli Mortgage Group brings the lowest mortgage rates to the market every day.
