*Annual Percentage Rate. The annual percentage rate (APR) is based on a $150,000 loan amount, which includes 20% down payment, application fee, appraisal fee, credit report fee, etc. The annual percentage rate (APR) is an interest rate that is different from the note rate. The APR is designed to measure the "true cost of a loan." This includes some costs/fees associated when obtaining a mortgage loan. It is not used to calculate payments. The interest rate, along with the term of the loan is used to calculate a payment. However, strictly relying on the comparisons of the APR amongst lenders may not always be a good way to determine the overall cost/fee associated with a mortgage. There are other costs/fees that are not included in the APR. By obtaining good faith estimates from lenders, which itemize all the costs/fees, assuming the same interest rate and loan term, a true comparison may be made when determining the lowest cost/fee associated with a mortgage. Rates are subject to change anytime. The principal and interest payment on a $150,000 loan with an APR of 7.460% and term of 360 months is $1,036.01.
