Medians are for originated closed-end loans with a first lien. Reverse mortgages, open-end lines of credit and loans for a business purpose are not in the medians. A median needs 20 loans.

The median rate spread was 0.155 percentage points above the average prime offer rate. On a loan of $300,000, that is about $465 more a year, or $39 more a month.

The dollar amount is a simple interest approximation: the rate spread times the full loan amount for one year. The balance of a loan decreases with each payment, and an APR includes some fees, so the amount for a real loan is different.
