Hi,

As per laws in Virginia, for a first mortgage loan a 2% prepayment charge of the amount of the prepayment can be imposed by the lender.

In addition it is required that the home should be occupied by the borrower for this law to be effective.

Hi Guest,

No lender can collect prepayment penalty on loans which are secured by real property having 1 to 4 family residential dwelling units. But this law is applicable only when the prepayment results from the enforcement of the lender's right to call the loan due on account of the sale of the property against which the loan is taken.

Thanks,

Hey sharon,

The term of pre-payment penalty will be mentioned in the mortgage docs. I don't think it can be over the life of the loan.
