What is prepaid interest?
This is the interim interest that accrues on the mortgage loan from the date of the loan closing to the beginning
of the period covered by the first monthly payment. For example, if your closing date is scheduled for April 15,
the first mortgage payment is due June 1. The lender will calculate a per-day interest amount that is collected at
the time of closing. This amount covers the interest accrued from April 15 to May 1 and then your June 1 payment
covers interest from May 1 to June 1.

What is a Teaser Rate?
