The average loan origination fee will be 0.5 to 2% of the loan amount, if expressed in points. It is charged by mortgage brokers for processing and closing your mortgage. Sometimes title fees, escrow, appraisal and other fees will be zeroed, but the loan origination fee will be inflated and high above the average. If that is the case, your loan origination fee will not be tax deductible.
This fee pays the person arranging your new loan, the loan officer. Average closing costs vary here, because this fee most often equals one point, but can be higher. This is usually how your loan officer is paid. A point in mortgage lending equals 1% of the total amount of money you are borrowing (not paying).So, if you need to actually borrow $200,000, one point equals $2,000.irst on the list of the loan closing costs is the application fee. This includes the cost of obtaining your credit report. Most lenders want to see this. Average closing costs for the application fee can range from $250 to 400 depending on where you live and the lender you choose.
