Most borrowers are familiar with the 30-year fixed rate mortgage, a very popular type of home loan, and assume that this is the type of mortgage they need. However, you will also find 10-year, 15-year, 18-year, 20-year and 25-year fixed rate options available from Gem Home Loans.
With a fixed-rate mortgage, the interest rate will remain the same for the entire loan term, and the payment will be the same every month. Loans with shorter terms, like 15-year fixed rate mortgages, enable you to pay less interest, pay off your debt faster, and build equity faster.
Interest rates on Adjustable-Rate Mortgages (ARMs) can fluctuate every year based on the market. They can be attractive to new home buyers because the initial interest rate is lower than the rate on a fixed-rate mortgage. If interest rates rise, however, the mortgage payments will also rise.
ARMs can be a good option for borrowers who intend to own their homes for only a few years, or who are confident they’ll be able to refinance the mortgage at a reasonable fixed-rate before the interest rates adjust.
VA, or Veterans Administration, home loans are insured by the Veterans Administration and available only to Veterans or the eligible dependents of Veterans. Some of the benefits of these mortgages can be no down payment, no private mortgage insurance, and more flexible qualifying requirements.
An FHA mortgage is a government-backed home loan that has less stringent down payment and credit requirements than those for conventional loans. Some benefits of the FHA program can be broader credit score qualifying, lower down payment, and more.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture also offers a home mortgage called a Rural Housing Loan or USDA Loan. Because of the way the USDA defines “rural”, there are plenty of suburban neighborhoods across the nation where USDA loans can be used. The program offers low interest rates and no down payments, and you may be surprised to find just how accessible it is.
Other Mortgage Options
Gem Home Loans can also help you find construction loans, jumbo loans, and mortgages for borrowers who are not eligible for traditional mortgages.
