What is mortgage?

A mortgage is a loan that is used to buy or to maintain a land, home, or other sort of real estate.

The borrower checks to refund the lender over a period of time, usually in an ordination of regular installments divided into principal and interest. The property is used as security for the loan.

According to the given information,

Mortgage Amount = $80,000

Points = 2

Let the 2 points is taken as a percentage:

Point 1 = 1%, and

Point 2 = 2%

Now, as we know that in the loan process, the amount of point is cyphered at the closing. Then, the closing cost is commuted as:

$\text{Closing Cost Amount} =\text{Mortgage} \times \text{Points}\\\\\text{Closing Cost Amount} = 80,000 \times 2\%\\\\\text{Closing Cost Amount} =\ 1,600$

Therefore, the given problem is false, that the borrower have to pay $800, he would have to pay only $1,600.
