An origination fee is part of the multi-step process of getting a loan and includes the cost of processing the application, underwriting, and financing the loan. The lender may combine the fees into one charge or may list each one individually.
Either way, origination fees are separate from your mortgage down payment and are often paid as part of your closing costs.
The typical origination fee is between 0.5% and 1% of the total loan amount. Several factors affect your exact fees. Unfortunately, we cannot give you the formula to figure out your costs as each lender uses slightly different criteria to determine them.

Also, keep in mind that some loan fees are unavoidable, such as:
Loan origination fees are tricky because each lender calculates differently, and those differences may not always be clear. Transparency and simplicity are foundational to our process, and we welcome all your questions about how we calculate origination fees.
