Fixed Rate Mortgage
If you expect to stay in your home for a significant length of time, and you want the security of a predictable payment, our Fixed Rate Mortgage program is the perfect solution. The rate is fixed for the life of the loan, and the terms offered are up to 30 years.
Adjustable Rate Mortgage
An Adjustable Rate Mortgage (ARM) has a lower interest rate at the beginning of the mortgage, which changes over time based on an index. There are many types of adjustable rate mortgages and the terms of the payment change are based on the specifics of the adjustable rate mortgage product you select.
