Notice of Required Interest Rate on Residential Mortgage Loan Escrow Accounts
Under s. 138.052 (5) (a), Stats., with some exceptions, a bank, credit union, savings bank, savings and loan association or mortgage banker which originates a residential mortgage loan requiring an escrow account to assure the payment of taxes or insurance or both shall pay interest on the outstanding principal balance of the escrow.
Section 138.052 (5) (am) 2, Stats., directs the Division of Savings Institutions in the Department of Financial Institutions, with the cooperation of the Office of Credit Unions and the Division of Banking, to determine annually the required interest rate. The rate is based on the average interest rate paid by Wisconsin depository institutions on passbook savings accounts.
The Division of Savings Institutions has calculated the interest rate required to be paid on escrow accounts under s. 138.052 (5), Stats., to be 2.83% per year. This interest rate shall remain in effect until the first day of the first month following publication of a new interest rate in the Wisconsin Administrative Register.
The interest rate of 2.83% per year applies to escrow accounts required for residential mortgage loans originated on or after January
1, 1997 and to escrow accounts required for residential mortgage loans originated after January 31, 1983 and before January 1, 1997 which do not specify an interest rate in the loan agreement.
