Fixed Rate Loans
Fixed rate loans are the most common type of mortgage program. If you decide to choose this type of loan, your monthly payments for interest and principal never change. . Property taxes and homeowners insurance may increase, but generally your monthly payments will be very stable. The payments are structured to pay the interest first and then repay the loan at the end of the loan term. As the loan is paid down, more of the monthly payment is applied to the principal.

Here are some examples for fixed rate loans:

Adjustable Rate Mortgages

The interest rate changes at specified intervals (for example, every year) depending on changing market conditions. If mortgage payment will rise or fall, depending on the interest rate.

Some mortgages combine aspects of fixed and adjustable rate loans. For example, a 5 year adjustable rate loan will have a fixed interest period for five years, then convert to an adjustable interest rate for the remainder of the loan period. Depending on the condition of the market, your mortgage payment could remain the same, increase or decrease. There are a number of different types of adjustable rate mortgages Ask your mortgage professional about these and other special kinds of mortgages that fit your specific financial situation.
