Internest sites tthat compare different loan scenarios
Question: We are shopping for a loan and would like to be able to compare different loan scenarios. We want to establish the true cost of the different loans that are available. Do you know of any site on the Internet where we could do this?
Â
Answer: Fannie Mae has introduced the latest version of its true cost calculator, an online tool providing consumers with an easy way to weigh various mortgage options. The release of true cost calculator 2.0 features the ability to create a file and save multiple loan scenarios for comparison purposes without needing to re-key data.
The technology helps consumers calculate the costs of getting a mortgage, including interest rate and points, mortgage insurance premiums, appraisal and title insurance fees, and other settlement charges. The True Cost Calculator at HomePath.com also provides a more precise estimate by factoring in how long the consumer actually plans to keep the loan. The tool provides an analysis using four key measures: the true cost rate, which is the true cost of the mortgage, expressed as an annual percentage; the true cost rate after taking into account the borrower's potential tax savings; the monthly mortgage payments; and the estimated equity the borrower can expect to amass during the anticipated loan term.
