- Do you "sell" your loans?
- Bank of England Mortgage serves as both a broker and a banker- meaning we can either service or sell your loan, depending on what best fits your financial situation.
A mortgage banker will originate, process, underwrite, close and fund the loan in-house. Bank of England Mortgage is an affiliate of the Bank of England, England, Arkansas.
A mortgage broker will sell your loan to an investor who has guaranteed your loan program, and therefore your loan will be serviced and funded by that investor. - What are origination and discount points?
- Origination and Discount points are both a percentage of your loan. Usually 1% of the total amount of the loan (often tax deductible). Clients with low or no down payment can still obtain a loan, but will usually pay a slightly higher interest rate.
- What is APR? (Annual Percentage Rate)
- Usually higher than your quoted interest rate because it includes, in addition to interest, some of the additional costs of obtaining your financing.
