That is the question.”             Homebuyers direct the same question to their real estate agents. Here are some perspectives:             In its simplest definition, a point is an additional loan fee that is paid to the lender in exchange for a lower interest rate.

If you paid two points ($10,000), the interest rate in this example would go down to 4.1% and the monthly payment would decrease to around $2,415, a saving... 07/25/2011
