Everything about Mordecai

Assigned schools

These are the base schools currently assigned to this address by Wake County Public School System. We list assignment as a fact and nothing more — we do not rate, rank or compare schools, and no one here will, because doing so is how housing discrimination happens in practice. Judge them yourself.

On this demonstration site the assignment is invented, and the homes have no real address to assign. In reality attendance areas are reassigned periodically and a base assignment can change before you close — verify it directly with Wake County Public School System before you rely on it.

Under 20% down, so private mortgage insurance is included at an estimated 0.55% of the loan a year. On a conventional loan it comes off automatically once you reach 78% loan-to-value, and you can usually request removal at 80%. On most FHA loans it stays for the life of the loan.

10%

Over the full term you would pay about $631,178 in interest, assuming you never pay extra and never refinance.

Estimates only. Actual rates depend on credit, loan type and the day. Wake County property tax is reassessed on a four-year cycle, so a recent revaluation can move the tax line. Talk to a lender for a real quote — we can introduce you to three.
