3.547168/5

Many lenders will offer a "no-cost" loan in lieu of a traditional mortgage. "No-cost" loans are generally priced at a higher interest rate than a traditional mortgage so that the lender can pay for all your closing costs and provide them with their profit. Use this calculator to help determine if a no-cost loan with your lender may be less expensive than a traditional mortage.
