Fixed Rate
A fixed rate mortgage may be just what you are looking for if you like the idea of stability. It can be a lot easier to budget your money when you know your mortgage interest rate isn't going to change every year. Plus, we offer you a lot of options to customize a fixed rate loan to your needs. Loan amount too high? We offer jumbo loan programs for the homeowner who wants the security of a fixed rate loan and whose loan amount exceeds the "conforming" loan limit. Need the biggest tax break available? Stick with a 30 year term. Kids headed for college in the next decade or so? Maybe a 15 year term would suit you better. Interested in paying your loan off early -- but as painlessly as possible? Would you like to ease into homeownership? Look into our Temporary Buydown options, like the ARM Alternative . Whatever your situation, we can work with you to make sure you get the perfect loan for your lifestyle!
Adjustable Rate Mortgages
Adjustable rate mortgages (ARM) offer you the flexibility of a lower initial payment, thus allowing you to qualify for a larger mortgage amount. The start rate can be fixed for varying terms, depending on the program. A wide range of ARM products are available, from 1-Year to 10-Year ARM loans. Programs with periods between interest rate changes of more than 1- year are typically referred to as Intermediate ARMs. Intermediate ARMs can offer the best of both worlds - a lower initial rate than a fixed rate mortgage but also the stability of a fixed rate for a specified period of time. As a result, you retain the opportunity to benefit from any declines in interest rate levels.
The LIBOR adjustable rate mortgage program provides additional flexibility by offering higher loan amounts not available on standard Agency adjustable rate mortgage programs. This index is based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). Additional features of this program include rate adjustment caps and lifetime caps, up to 95% financing, and loan amounts up to $1,000,000.
Additionally, many loan programs permit the use of temporary buydowns. A temporary buydown is a reduction of your interest rate for a stated period of time.
