Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Massachusetts
Calculation error on closing documents
I submitted an application to re-finance my condo for $176,000 (@ 1.5 points) but after the appraisal the amount ended up being for $169,000. Now, about 1 month after the closing, I noticed that the 1.5% charge for points was based on the $176,000 and not the $169,000. What can I do?

Re: Calculation error on closing documents
Write the lender and request a credit or refund as the loan does not conform to the representations made in the loan application. However, make sure the point charges were 1.5% of the $169K on the closindg document.
