Mortgages
The first terms you will come across in determining the conditions you want
for your mortgage are fixed and adjustable.
- Fixed rates are constant through out the repayment of your loan and give
you the stability of knowing your monthly payment will be the same at the
end of your loan as they were at the start.
- Adjustable rates are less predictable because they adjust with current rate
indexes and can rise or fall as your repayment period progresses. The lessened
stability of this loan is balanced out by lenient qualifying, low introductory
rates, and the knowledge that an adjustable rate loan has a cap, or ceiling
to keep the rate from rising too high.

Home Equity Since home equity is something one already owns in a sense, home equity loans carry less risk than other loans. The benefit of this diminished risk is felt by the borrower through lower interest rates and lower monthly payments. Apply online to take advantage of the equity on your home. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Land Loan Land loans are consistently perceived to be of greater risks by lenders. The lenders require great detail about the proposed home that will be built because they want to be sure that the sale price of the home where it will be located isn’t less than the original loan amount. For this reason, lending institutions that are far away geographically from the land lot will often not make the loan on the basis of knowing very little about the property and the property values of the surrounding area. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Mortgage Calculation Mortgage calculation can also help you plan whether or not you would like to include extra payments in your repayment schedule. On the loan of $150,000 at 7% interest with a 30 year term and a monthly payment of $997, one extra yearly payment can save a homeowner nearly $50,000 in interest payments. If this loan had a 15 year term, the difference that of extra yearly payment would be far less impressive, saving just over $9,500. If you are interested in making an extra yearly payment and feel you it will not put too much strain on your finances, it is a good idea to discuss this with your lender. Extra payments can cause you to finish paying your balance before the scheduled end of the repayment period and some lenders have prepayment fees, so you should check to make sure there are no such penalties or include these extra payments in your repayment schedule. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
