The truth is that a large portion of payday customers end up in dire financial straits because of these seemingly innocuous loans. Hereâs what happens. The average payday loan charges a fee of about $15 for every $100 borrowed. That might sound like an interest rate of 15%, but thatâs the fee for a two-week loan. On an annualized basisâwhich is how most people think about interest rates, or shouldâthat translates into a rate of 391%.
On average, home buyers pay 1% of the loan amount in the form of an origination fee. For example, on a loan of $300,000, a 1% origination fee would come out to $3,000. So the more money you borrow, the higher the fee. If your lender is charging you a mortgage origination fee much higher than 1%, you should ask them why.
