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.
A rough way to estimate the monthly PMI cost for 30-year conventional loans is to divide the loan amount by 900, 1300, 1900, or 3200 for loans with down payments of 3%, 5%, 10%, or 15% respectively. For example, let's say you buy a $200,000 home and put 5% down.
