Definitions

Annual Percentage Rate (APR)
A standard calculation used by lenders. It is designed to help borrowers compare different loan options. For example, a loan with a lower stated interest rate may be a bad value if its fees are too high. Likewise, a loan with a higher stated rate with very low fees could be an exceptional value. APR calculations incorporate these fees into a single rate. You can then compare loans with different fees, rates or different terms.

Mortgage amount
Original or expected balance for your mortgage.

Interest rate
Annual interest rate for this mortgage.

Term in years
The number of years over which you will repay this loan. The most common mortgage terms are 15 years and 30 years.

Monthly payment
Monthly principal and interest payment (PI).

Total payments
Total of all monthly payments over the full term of the mortgage. This total payment amount assumes that there are no prepayments of principal.

Total interest
Total of all interest paid over the full term of the mortgage. This total interest amount assumes that there are no prepayments of principal.

Loan origination percent
The percent of your loan charged as a loan origination fee. For example, a 1% fee on a $120,000 loan would cost $1,200.

Discount points
Total number of "points" purchased to reduce your mortgage's interest rate. Each "point" costs 1% of your loan amount.

Other fees
Any other fees that should be included in the APR calculation. These fees can vary by lender, but at a minimum usually includes prepaid interest.

Real Estate Tips
Working With An Agent >The Exclusive Sale

The most common and popular arrangement to have with a real estate agent when selling a specific property is an "exclusive right-to-sell". This type of agreement has advantages for both the broker and the seller. It allows an agent to give his or her full attention to marketing a seller's home or property for a certain period of time without competition from other real estate companies.

Within such an exclusive arrangement, the real estate agent shares the listing with national and worldwide referral networks through the Multiple Listing Service that is subscribed to by most real estate sales professionals. The MLS listing assures your home of the widest possible exposure to the market place.

Nine out of ten homes that are sold today are "listed" homes (more in some markets). Enough said!
