Frequently Asked Questions About Billing Statements
Once you have closed on your loan you will begin receiving your billing statement. The statement is made up of three sections. Section 1 is your transaction listing, Section 2 is interest accruals, and Section 3 is an account recap.

Section 1 - Transaction Listing
This section lists your beginning balance, balance this statement and the principle balance as of the statement cutoff date. The principle balance is not your payoff amount and it does not include accrued interest. When paying off your loan you should always contact Nexity Bank.

Section 2 - Finance Charge Calculation
This section displays how interest was accrued for the statement period.

Section 3 - Loan Summary
This section gives you summary information of what was discussed in section 1 and section 2. You will notice the "Interest Due" field. This is the interest due as of the date that the statement was produced. To determine your payoff, you should always contact Nexity Bank. Also, the "Minimum Payment Due" field states the total amount due on the payment due date.

Making A Payment
• Always include your loan number on any correspondence to Nexity Bank. This allows Nexity Bank staff to process your payment more efficiently.

• You will receive a "Loan Billing Statement" each month. There is a perforated payment stub attached to the top of the Loan Billing Statement. Please return this with your payment to Nexity Bank. This allows for more prompt payment processing.

• If you choose to wire your payoff amount to Nexity Bank, payoff amounts are only valid for one day. The wire transfer deadline is 3:00 P.M. Eastern Standard Time.

• If you do not have a postage paid envelope from Nexity Bank, your loan payment should be addressed to:
