Paying Points at Closing
You’ll notice a “points” column in the mortgage rates table above. One point or discount points is equal to one percent of the amount borrowed. As a borrower, you can choose not to pay points. However, you may choose to pay points at closing to secure a lower interest rate on your loan.
The table shows how borrowers’ loan points affect mortgage rates. Paying more basis points at closing will ensure a lower interest rate. So, there is an inverse relationship between the two. Paying points or a loan origination fee benefit borrowers who keep the mortgage for at least seven years.

Loan Purpose
The “loan purpose” is a frequently used term in the mortgage industry. It describes why a borrower is looking to apply for a home loan. The mortgage lender will make lending decisions on the risk level of the loan and borrower.
The loan purpose can also affect the interest rate the lender offers. The most common examples of a loan purpose include purchase, rate/term refinance and cash-out refinance.
Down Payment
A down payment on a home is the cash investment or home equity the home buyer pays in a real estate transaction. The down payment is a percentage of the purchase price. The down payment can range from 3% to as much as 20% for a property that’s a primary residence.
For instance, a home purchased for $400,000 with an $80,000 down payment results in 20% equity in the house. In general, larger down payments result in better rates and closing costs. Likewise, down payments below 20% usually require mortgage insurance which would be an added cost. The exception is for VA financing.
Loan Amount
The loan amount is the money you borrow to purchase the home. It differs from the purchase price since most loan programs don’t always provide 100 percent financing.
The loan amount will impact the rate and loan program eligibility. There are loan limits for standard loan programs such as conforming or FHA loans. Anything above these loan limits results in a loan program change, which results in different rates and fees. Generally, VA loans offer the best terms, followed by conventional loans and certain jumbo loans for pre qualified borrowers.
Credit Score
A credit score is a three-digit number based on the information obtained from the three major credit bureaus, Trans Union, Equifax, and Experian. These scores help lenders determine how likely you are to repay a loan. Won’t, in turn, affect your interest rate, loan eligibility, and your down payment. A score is affected by your repayment history, the number and age of open accounts, total debt levels, and credit card utilization percentage.
Higher scores, over 780, get the lowest rates available. However, with lower scores, in 20-point increments, the rates progressively worsen. For example, the following score range would be 760-779, 740-759, 720-739, 700-719, and so on. Qualifying for a loan once your credit score drops below 640 will be severely limited.
Purchase Price
The purchase price of a home is the amount you agree to pay the seller. It’s the amount on your sales contract, or the amount your real estate agent negotiated with the seller. For example, a home listed for sale is $475,000, but your real estate agent gets it down to $450,000. Your purchase price is $450,000.
Property Type
The property type refers to the property characteristics or configuration of the dwelling, which also serves as collateral for the loan. For example, property types include detached homes, attached homes, condominiums, planned urban development, or PUD.
Single-family homes typically provide the best loan terms compared to other properties, mainly because they are considered stable collateral. Condos would be the next best, followed by multi-family homes, assuming a down payment of 25%. Co-op and manufactured homes are more difficult to finance than other property types.
Occupancy
Owner-occupancy refers to the idea of living in the home thats your primary residence. It is crucial information from the lender’s point of view because if you weren’t planning to live in the home you were purchasing or refinancing, you would be an absentee owner. In this instance, the lender considers the home investment property, and you would not be eligible for the same home loan products or rates available for a primary residence.
Loan Programs
There are several loan programs available to finance a property purchase. The standard mortgage loan programs in the US include conforming loans, FHA (federal housing administration) loans, VA loans, fixed-rate mortgages, and variable-rate mortgages. Different fixed-rate loan terms are available, such as a 30-year fixed, 25-year, 20-year, or 15-year fixed. Adjustable rate mortgage (ARM), or adjustable rate mortgages, are typically fixed for a predetermined time before adjusting annually.
