Debt Service Reserve Fund (estimated 5%) Expected to drop
|
What is the debt service reserve fund? A standard form of investor security for the Bonds that helps us achieve a better bond rating and interest rate. This money is set aside at closing and held in escrow to secure the Bonds in the event of nonpayment, thereby reducing the overall interest cost to the borrower. These funds may be used to payoff the bond before the end of its term and may release borrowers from any remaining payments at that time. |
