"POINTS UP FRONT" (PREPAID FINANCE CHARGES Nowadays, it is almost the norm to have to pay some finance charges up front in order to secure a loan, especially a mortgage. In the U.S., the FHA (Federal Housing Act) rates are well known for their dependence on the "points" that you are willing to pay up front. These "points" are percentage points. The more percentage points of the borrowed money you are willing to pay at the onset of the loan, the lower the rate will be that is used to calculate your payment. Prepaid finance charges or "points up front" have the effect of increasing the actual interest rate that is paid on the borrowed money. These prepaid finance charges reduce the net amount of money borrowed up front, without reducing the payment. This is not the same as a "down payment," which reduces both the money borrowed and the payment amount.

"POINTS
UP
FRONT"
(PREPAID
FINANCE
CHARGES
Nowadays,
it
is
almost
the
norm
to
have
to
pay
some
finance
charges
up
front
in
order
to
secure
a
loan,
especially
a
mortgage.
In
the
U.S.,
the
FHA
(Federal
Housing
Act)
rates
are
well
known
for
their
dependence
on
the
"points"
that
you
are
willing
to
pay
up
front.
These
"points"
are
percentage
points.
The
more
percentage
points
of
the
borrowed
money
you
are
willing
to
pay
at
the
onset
of
the
loan,
the
lower
the
rate
will
be
that
is
used
to
calculate
your
payment.
Prepaid
fi
nance
charges
or
"points
up
front"
have
the
effect
of
increasing
the
actual
interest
rate
that
is
paid
on
the
borrowed
money.
These
prepaid
finance
charges
reduce
the
net
amount
of
money
borrowed
up
front,
without
reducing
the
payment.
This
is
not
the
same
as
a
"down
payment,"
which
reduces
both
the
money
borrowed
and
the
payment
amount.
