Fixed-rate mortgages
This option is great for those who are looking to own their home for several years, as it provides the stability of fixed payments.
- Interest rates are fixed for the life of the loan, typically 15 or 30 years.
- Your payment includes principal plus interest, which will remain fixed over the life of the loan. Your payment will also include property taxes and insurance, which may change over time. When needed, mortgage insurance may also be included in your payment.
- Your total mortgage payment is more stable than a rent payment, but may change due to tax increases or changes in insurance premiums.
Adjustable rate mortgages
