Tasa de originación del préstamo

This is the percentage of the new mortgage that is paid to the lender as the loan origination fee. Typically, this fee is 1% of the loan balance.

Puntos pagados

This is the number of points paid to the lender to reduce the interest rate on the mortgage. Each point costs 1% of the new loan amount.

Otros costos de cierre

Estimación de todos los demás costos de cierre del préstamo. Debe incluir las tarifas de presentación, las tarifas del tasador y cualquier otra tarifa adicional pagada.

Pago mensual del PMI

Costo mensual del seguro hipotecario principal (PMI). Para préstamos garantizados con menos del 20 % de pago inicial, el PMI se estima en el 0.5 % del saldo de su préstamo cada año. Para calcular el PMI mensual, multiplique el saldo inicial de su préstamo por este porcentaje y divídalo entre 12. Cuando el valor neto de su vivienda supera el porcentaje requerido para el PMI, su pago de PMI se reduce a cero.

Normally PMI is required if you have less than 20% equity in your home, however for the refinance of loan guaranteed by Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae you may not be required to pay PMI if your current mortgage doesn't require it. Check with your lenders for details. Check the box "do NOT include PMI" if this applies to your refinance.

Pago actual

Your current payment is the sum of principal, interest and PMI (Principal Mortgage Insurance). Because refinancing does not affect your insurance or taxes, they are not included here.

Nuevo pago

Your new payment is the sum of principal, interest and PMI.

Pago mensual de capital e interés (PI)

Pago mensual de capital e interés.

Break even monthly payment savings

The number of months it will take for your monthly payment reduction to be greater than closing costs.

Break even PMI & interest savings

The number of months it will take for your interest and PMI savings to exceed your closing costs.

Break even total savings after-tax

The number of months it will take for your after-tax interest and PMI savings to exceed your closing costs.

Break even total savings vs. prepayment

This is the most conservative break even measure. It is the number of months it will take for your after-tax interest and PMI savings to exceed both your closing costs and any interest savings from prepaying your mortgage. The prepayment amount used in this calculation is the amount that you would have to spend on closing costs.
