Conventional Fixed RatesLoans that have a fixed rate and monthly principal and interest payments for the entire life of the loan. It's easy to budget for this type of loan because your payment will always be the same. The rate on a fixed rate mortgage loan is generally higher than an adjustable rate mortgage. |

Adjustable RatesLoans that usually start with a lower rate than fixed rate loans. We'll let you know how much the rate can be adjusted over the life of the loan, so you will know the absolute maximum amount you would ever have to pay. If you will be moving in a few years or if you think interest rates will be going down, you'll want to consider this type of loan. |
