    A basis point is 1/100 of a percentage point. So 350 basis points is 3.5%.

    The LIBOR rate varies depending on the length of term, either 3-month, 6-month, or 1-year - right now it vaires from about 2.4% to 3.2%, depending on the term. So this loan would cost you somewhere between 5.9% and 6.7%.
