Mortgages –
what should I look for?
Finding
a new home can be an exciting process. If this is your first
home then you not only have to find the right home, but you also
have to understand the kinds of mortgages that are available.
Searching for online mortgages makes this easier. At least you
can do it from the comfort of your own home. There are mortgages
to suit every lifestyle and budget.
Consider
the following questions when looking at mortgages:
-
How much can
you afford to pay each month or every two weeks?
-
How long do
you intend to stay in this home?
-
How long do
you want the loan to last at that interest rate?
-
How much will
your income increase during that time?
Three common
types of mortgages available include:
1. Fixed Rate
Loan – Usually used if you plan to stay in your house
for 15 – 30 years
2. Adjustable Rate Loan – ARL is usually lower than a fixed
rate loan and after an agreed upon time, such as 2, 4, 6 years,
the rate will change to reflect current market conditions
3. First Time Home Buyers – You may be able to qualify with
less income and little or no downpayment.
Browse through
these selected sites and find mortgages that best suit your
needs.
