Hi, I can only tell you about the daily interest b/c I just asked my mortgage lady the same question. Basically it breaks down your mortgage payment (mostly taxes at first) based on your closing day. So if you close the 1st of the month it's the full amount, if you close the last day of the month it's ~1/30th...they just estimate it for the 15th, I don't know why. It's just a prorated mortgage payment basically.
This is about what I'm doing and our numbers are very similar! I am, however, doing a state program as well that lowers my interest rate quite a bit.
Thanks for the response Roxanna1974. I just want to be sure I'm making the best decision without being taken advantage of because I don't know the business. Anyone else? Happy Valentines Day to All...
