Bank of America Cuts Fees For Its Home Loans
By Ruth Simon and Valerie Bauerlein
"Looking to boost market share when loan demand has slowed, Bank of America Corp. has rolled out a no-fee mortgage aimed at home buyers.
Under the program, Bank of America won't charge borrowers for loan applications, title insurance, appraisals and flood certifications or require them to get private mortgage insurance. Typically, borrowers who don't put 20% down must get mortgage insurance or take out a "piggyback" loan, which combines a mortgage with a home-equity loan"
