A Mello-Roos, or Community Facilities District (CFD), is an extra assessment
that appears on the property tax bill in some newer developments. It repays bonds issued to build
streets, schools, parks, and utilities for that neighborhood, and it is charged on top of regular
property taxes. Not every home has one, it usually runs for a fixed number of years, and the exact
amount is listed on the property's tax bill.
Temporary buydown — often paid by the seller
A buydown lowers the payment for the first year or two. You still qualify at the
full note rate, and the cost is funded at closing.

This calculator provides estimates for general information only. It is not a Loan Estimate,
a pre-approval, a rate lock, a credit decision, or a commitment to lend, and it does not include
an APR. Interest rates shown are entered by the user and are not quoted rates. Property taxes,
insurance, Mello-Roos or CFD assessments, HOA dues, mortgage insurance, and closing costs are
estimates that vary by property, lender, and closing date, and your actual figures will differ.
All loans are subject to credit approval, income and asset verification, property appraisal, and
program guidelines. Not all applicants will qualify. Terms and programs are subject to change
without notice.
