MORTGAGE RATE OPTIONS

Which Rate Option is Right for You?

​

There are two basic types of rate structures for home loans and each has its own potential pros and cons:

The interest rate you get when you close on your mortgage loan is the one you'll pay each month.

 

With this option, you know exactly what you're in for in terms of your principal and interest payment.

Your interest rate could go up and down over the life of your loan.
