A New Mortgage Advantage for Buyers in the Bay Area and Hawai'i
Buying a home in competitive markets like San Francisco, Silicon Valley, and Hawai'i requires every financial advantage available.
Through Rocket Wholesale, Compass buyers working with mortgage advisor John Zialcita may qualify for an additional 40 basis point mortgage pricing improvement.
This pricing advantage can be used to:

What Does a 40 Basis Point Mortgage Advantage Mean?
Understanding Basis Points
A basis point (bps) is one hundredth of a percent.
40 basis points = 0.40% of the loan amount
Example Calculation
If a buyer takes out a $1,000,000 mortgage, a 40 basis point pricing improvement equals approximately $4,000 in mortgage pricing value.
In some cases, this improvement may also translate to approximately 0.125% lower mortgage rate pricing.
Value of 40 Basis Points by Loan Amount
| Loan Amount | Value of 40bps |
|---|---|
| $750,000 | $3,000 |
| $1,000,000 | $4,000 |
| $1,500,000 | $6,000 |
| $2,500,000 | $10,000 |
