8. MLDS & Other Items By Amber Hatter Summary 1 2 3 This document provides an overview of the mortgage process, highlighting the Annual Percentage Rate (APR), closing costs, and the Mortgage Loan Disclosure Statement (MLDS). It details how APR encompasses the total yearly cost of a loan, including interest and fees, for easy comparison of financial products. It also explains the HUD-I APR Table, which lists fees affecting the APR. Closing costs are categorized into Recurring (for ongoing homeownership expenses) and Non-Recurring (one-time payments at settlement). Also, it contrasts mortgage bankers and brokers, outlining their roles and the loan options they provide. The MLDS is emphasized as essential for offering borrowers detailed loan and closing cost information, promoting transparency and informed decision-making. APR Definition I.

Annual Percentage Rate (APR) > Definition & Calculation i. Annual Percentage Rate (APR) APR, or Annual Percentage Rate, is a key metric that shows the total yearly cost of borrowing, or the interest earned on investments, including both interest rates and fees for a comprehensive cost view. It's standardized as a yearly percentage, facilitating easy comparison across different loans or investments, regardless of their term lengths. Commonly applied to credit cards and mortgages, APR encompasses yearly interest, annual fees, origination fees, and closing costs, offering a consistent basis for comparing financial products from various lenders or institutions.

Recurring Closing Costs (RCC’s) Despite the misleading name, Recurring Closing Costs (RCC’s) don't represent ongoing payments to your closing agent or lender. Instead, they are upfront payments for future homeownership expenses.  Pre-paid Items: This term better describes recurring closing costs, emphasizing they cover future expenses paid in advance.  Common Types: These typically include property taxes, homeowner's insurance (hazard insurance), HOA fees (if applicable), and, if necessary, private mortgage insurance (PMI).  Prorated Payments: Calculated at closing, these costs are adjusted for the timeperiod up until the next due date, such as pre-paying property taxes for the next six months.  Impound Accounts (Optional): Lenders may require an escrow or impound account to manage these pre-paid funds, using them to cover your property taxes and homeowner's insurance as they come due. ii. Non-Recurring Closing Costs (NRCC’s) Non-Recurring Closing Costs (NRCCs) consist of one-time payments made during the settlement. These payments are for diverse services and expenses necessary to finalize it. As one-time fees, they are unique to the scenario at hand, paid at closing, and encompass the various services and procedures essential to complete the deal.  Loan Origination Fees: Charges for processing and underwriting your mortgage, enhancing financial transparency in your loan disclosure statement.  Third-Party Service Fees: Costs for essential services like appraisals and inspections, crucial for informed decision-making and error detection in the mortgage process.  Government Charges and Recording Fees: Fees by government entities for document processing and recording, a key aspect of the disclosure statement for mortgage transparency.  Title and Insurance Fees: Expenses ensuring clear title and protection, vital for financial empowerment and informed decision-making in real estate transactions.  Other Closing Costs: Miscellaneous fees, such as attorney or courier fees, specific to your transaction, highlighting the importance of thorough review for error detection and financial transparency in your mortgage disclosure statement. III. Mortgage Loan Disclosure Statement (MLDS) > Traditional i. What’s the difference between a banker and a broker? Feature Mortgage Banker Mortgage Broker Definition Acts like a one-stop shop. They handle your application, underwriting (deciding if you qualify for the loan), approval, and closing. They may use their own funds or funds from a warehouse lender to fund the loan initially. Then, they may sell the loan to investors on the secondary market. Works more like a middleman. They gather your information and find the best lender for your situation from their network of banks and other lenders. They don't fund the loan themselves, but they guide you through the application process and help you get the paperwork in order.
