FAQ #7 ......... I Don't Want To Pay Any Points?
In my seventh Frequently Asked Questions blog in the ActiveRain contest that Anna 'Banana' Kruchten established in which we are to respond to the 10 most frequently asked questions that we are asked, I will cover a topic that I feel is very misunderstood.  When people hear this word, they automatically begin to have very negative thoughts about it.  While this blog will most likely not change those preceptions, it will hopefully provide some information that may soften some of the feelings surrounding this topic. FAQ #7 is really more of a statement then a question, but it is very appropriate for this contest and series of blogs:
"FAQ #7 ......... I Don't Want To Pay Any Points?"
I don't blame Borrowers for having the negative feelings that they have about Points.  After all they have probably never heard that word use in any way but in a negative way.  In this blog I will not avoid the negative aspects of Points, but I will also show how Points can actually be a very positive thing.
First I will not only address but also reinforce the negative aspects of Points, or as I call them Bad Points.  Bad Points are Points ... more
