On August 20, Mr. and Mrs. Cleaver decided to buy a property from Mr. and Mrs. Ward for $105,000. On August 30, Mr. and Mrs. Cleaver obtained a loan commitment from OKAY National Bank for an $84,000 conventional loan at 10 percent for 30 years. The lender informs Mr. and Mrs. Cleaver that a $2,100 loan origination fee will be required to obtain the loan. The loan closing is to take place September 22. In addition, escrow accounts will be required for all prorated property taxes and hazard insurance; however, no mortgage insurance is necessary. The buyer will also pay a full years premium for hazard insurance to Rock of Gibraltar Insurance Company. A breakdown of expected settlement costs, provided by OKAY National Bank when Mr. and Mrs. Cleaver inspect the uniform settlement statement as required under RESPA on September 21, is as follows:

  1. Real estate tax proration (taxes for the current year to be paid in arrears by BUYER to county next January 1: $800 per year). Because the SELLER owns the property from January 1 to September 22 (264 days), BUYER owes for remaining 101 days. Therefore, a credit for part of the $800-per-year real estate tax (for 264 days) is due to buyer from seller at closing.
