Explaining discount points on mortgage loans
06/30/2024
If I am making an informational post about what mortgage points are and I state, "Each point typically costs 1% of your total loan amount and can reduce your interest rate by a fraction (usually 0.25%)," is that technically a method of determining a finance charge and subject to additionaldisclosures per section 1026.16? I should note that this post is an explanation of what discount points are, and not necessarily an advertisement for a specific product, but also I'm not sure there are carveouts from the provision. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
