It's a lesson to BUILD upon and if you're smart, you'll use this failure to your benefit and grow from it.

Shopping mortgage ratescan be confusing, especially if you are dealing with a loan officer that has no integrity. It's just a sales job to them. You hear people say... Shop Rate...Shop APR (Annual Percentage Rate)….. Shop mortgage fees….. So which is it? Shopping for a mortgage can be very frustrating also to say the least. I hear so many called experts tell the average consumer to shop APR. This is not the wisest of decisions and can be argued by many professionals. Keep in mind, this is my opinion on this subject.
Lets add some more confusion. Most of us know what the rate is in regards to mortgages. Lets define rate and APR. Rate : A charge or payment calculated in relation to a particular sum or quantity: interest rates. (from answer.com) APR (Annual Percentage Rate) : Is the cost of your credit expressed as an annual rate. This is a federally required formula, designed to help the borrower compare the cost of credit. The APR rate is different from the note rate of your mortgage and is usually higher than the note rate. Why is this?
The APR rate is usually different than the mortgage rate because the APR includes certain fees which are calculated into the actual rate. The problem with this is that so many people tell you to use the APR as your measuring tool when shopping with other lenders. And each lender by law is suppose to send you a Truth in Lending disclosure which shows you the APR.
So why does comparing one companies APR with another can be misleading or incorrect? Because the lender is suppose to include certain fees in this calculation. Not only do some companies leave some of these fees out, but there are other fees that don't have to be included that some lenders might include and the rules are not clearly defined. Sound confusing? Yes and I will talk about this later.
So, what fees are included in the APR?
These fees are generally included :
Points – both origination and discount
Underwriting, loan processing, and document prep fees (these are generally true junk fees)
commitment fee
attorney and or title closing fees
PMI (private mortgage insurance) or MIP for FHA (Mortgage insurance premium) financed
Prepaid interest - Interest that is paid from the time that you close to the end of the month. The problem here is that some lenders put 1 day or 5 days down on your good faith estimate. Even if they don't know your closing date.
Sometimes included :
Application fee
Tax related service fee
Generally not included :
Appraisal fee
Credit report fee
Title fee
Recording fees
Conclusion : The overall function of the APR is to measure the ‘true cost’ of the loan. Its suppose to create fairness and a level playing field amongst other lenders. Getting back to why I think comparing APRs from different companies is a bad idea. As mentioned, some lenders don't know how to compute the APR. Others leave out certain fees that should be included. Lastly, many lenders use programs that help compute the APR and it doesn't matter if you are applying for a FHA loan or a conventional loan. Not all of these APR programs are the same. Blame this on the government for not making it all the same.
Another issue about the APR is that it's based on the length of that mortgage. If you are applying for a 30 year mortgage, it will be based on 365 months. Keeping in mind that the average person moves out of their house in 6.7 years and or would refinance their mortgage in 4 to 7 years. Overall, it's extremely rare that someone would keep that same mortgage for the length of that loan, the term of that mortgage.
My opinion? Use the TIL (Truth in Lending disclosure) as a helpful tool to ask questions why it might be higher or lower than another companies disclosure. But go back to the good faith estimate as your real tool. Why? Because all fees are supposed to be shown on this form. I would compare rate, term, and fees and here is a good example of this. Shopping Good Faith Estimates. (FYI - compare the same programs) Just one word of advice, not every loan officer will be truthful when it comes to the good faith estimate. Some lenders will not show all costs or confuse you by mixing up the different costs. *** And remember this, most of the costs are 3rd party charges which are estimates. You need to decipher what these are in order to shop accurately. Finding a trusted mortgage consultant is very important.
River Hills, a private, gated plantation and country club community on Lake Wylie, SC was developed in the early 1980's. The developer, the same one who developed Sea Pines Plantation on Hilton Head Island, detailed the preservation of the land and trees at River Hills. The master planned community developed into a beautifully maintained lake front community which boasts lake vistas, mature trees and large, densely wooded lots.
There are approximately 1,100 homes in River Hills Plantation with nearly the same number of varied architectural designs. Homes include cedar shake condos to gorgeous waterfront estates. The country club includes a championship golf course, an award-winning private marina, boat slips and private lake access. There's a 10-court tennis complex, swimming pools, covered pavillion, private parks and children's parks along with community gardens.
