Higher is a better buy. 50 is "priced about right for what it is". The last step curves the raw advantage onto 0–100, so points stop being one-for-one at the extremes.
💵What this unit actually costs per month
28% of that payment is not the mortgage. The HOA fee alone is $29,280 over five years — money that buys you no equity. A calculator that defaulted the fee to zero would have quoted you $3,626.
Rate is the Freddie Mac PMMS 30-year average for the week of 2026-08-20 — a national survey figure, not a quote. Tax, insurance and closing costs are estimates; your own Loan Estimate is the real number.
