Neither mortgage nor bond yields include allowance for servicing costs which are
much higher for mortgages than for bonds. Generally, bonds pay interest semiannually; mortgages, monthly. Mortgage yields, if computed as equivalent to
a semi-annual interest investment, would be slightly higher than given in the
table.

Compiled by Federal H o m e L o a n B a n k Board in cooperation with Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation. Data are weighted averages based on probability sample, survey of characteristics of conventional first mortgages originated by m a j o r institutional lender
groups (including mortgage companies) for purchase of single family homes.
Data exclude loans for refinancing, reconditioning or modernization; construction loans to
home-builders; and permanent loans which are coupled with construction loans to ownerbuilders.
Related series on conventional mortgage rates only, based on unweighted
opinions of field-office directors of the Federal Housing Administration, are available
somewhat sooner than the results of the FHLBB-FPIC survey, and are included-in the case
of new home mortgage rates--in Table 16.
Fees and charges--expressed as a percentage of the principal mortgage amount--include
loan commissions, fees, discounts, and other charges which provide added income to the
lender and are paid b y the borrower. They exclude any closing costs related solely to
transfer of property ownership.
