48Summary of Your Loan
The Summary of Your Loan Terms discloses your loan amount, loan term, the
initial interest rate and the principal, interest and mortgage insurance portion of your
monthly mortgage payment. It also informs you if your interest rate can increase, if
your loan balance can rise, whether your mortgage payment can rise and if there is a
prepayment penalty or balloon payment.
In the example above, the loan amount is $200,000 which will be paid over 30
years. The initial interest rate is 5 percent and the initial monthly mortgage payment
is $1,173 which includes mortgage insurance, but does not include any amounts to
pay for property taxes and homeowner’s insurances if required by the lender.
In our example, the loan has an adjustable interest rate. Since the interest
rate can rise, the ‘yes’ box was checked, and the loan originator disclosed that the
initial interest rate of 5 percent could rise as high as 10 percent. The first time your
interest rate could rise is 6 months after settlement which could increase your
.
payments to $1,290
Over the life of your loan your monthly payments could increase
from $1,173 to $1,842.
This example does not contain a balloon payment or a prepayment penalty.
NOTE: A prepayment penalty is a charge that is assessed if you pay off the loan
within a specified time period, such as three years. A balloon payment is due on a
mortgage that usually offers a low monthly payment for an initial period of time.
After that period of time elapses, the balance must be paid by the borrower, or the
amount must be refinanced. You should think carefully before agreeing to these
kinds of mortgage loans. If you are unable to refinance or pay the balance of the
loan, you could put your home at risk.
