Understanding Your Quote and Percentage Rate

Your rate quote is based on a variety of factors (including your credit score, down payment, and purchase price) and delivers the most accurate results possible based on your inputs.

• Detailed costs breakdown: Click on the “view” tab under “details” to see an itemized list of all estimated costs.
• Rate & APR: Your rate is the anticipated interest rate. The APR is the total cost of your loan, expressed as an annual percentage rate.
• Origination charges: Sammamish Mortgage doesn’t charge industry-standard lender fees, so the amount for “origination fee” will typically be zero.
• Discount points: You can buy “points” by paying an amount for each point equal to 1% of the purchase price, and lower your interest rate by up to a quarter of a percent for each point purchased.
• Monthly mortgage payment: This includes the principal and interest included in your base monthly payment.
• Estimated third-party charges: This includes the wide range of fees included in your closing costs.
• Closing costs: The closing cost total listed includes everything except prepaid items such as property taxes, homeowner’s insurance, and daily interest.
• Private mortgage insurance premiums: PMI is required on loan to value (LTV) ratios over 80% (except on VA loans). We offer reduced PMI options with as little as 3% down.
• Rate locks: We can lock your rate from 30 up to 180 days.
