Rate & Cost Comparison
Enter up to 3 rate options with any discount points or lender credits. See the exact monthly payment for each, the payment difference between them, and the precise breakeven in months between every pair of options.
Everyone assumes the goal is the lowest rate and payment. That sounds right… until the math tells a different story.
What if you’re paying $1,000 to save only $100? That’s not savings, that’s a loss. This is where recapture analysis becomes critical. Evaluating the tradeoff between discount points and lender credits before locking a rate is one of the most important financial decisions in the process.
Discount points are a one-time cost used to buy down your interest rate, increasing your upfront closing costs. Lender credits work in the opposite direction, providing a one-time credit to offset third-party fees and prepaids, reducing what you bring in at closing.
Both are priced as a percentage of your loan amount. The key is understanding how long it takes to recover that cost or benefit. That’s the recapture, and it’s where the real decision should be made.
