Mortgage Hunting

Fixed vs. Adjustable Mortgage

A fixed rate mortgage is one that will have the same rate for the life of the loan or until you refinance and then you could have a new rate for the life of that loan.  Where an adjustable rate mortgage may have a rate for 5, 7 or 10 years, and then can adjust according to a benchmark set by the market.  But a cap on that rate is common.

If you want a payment that won't change on your monthly principal & interest, then the fixed-rate is probably the option for you.  But if you want something on the cheaper side, and if you think you won't be staying in the property for very long, then the adjustable rate may be your choice.

Mortgage Planning

Which one is the right one? First of all, let’s look at the definition of each.

FHA Loan –

FHA mortgage loans are home loans backed by the Federal Housing Administration through mortgage insurance. You pay 3.5% of the purchase price of the home on your own as the down payment. The other 96.5% of the price is covered by your mortgage. FHA loans also come with monthly mortgage insurance. However, these premiums are often lower than other mortgage loans, so they’re optimal for first time home buyers.

Rural Development Loan –

It’s not much different than getting an FHA loan. Like FHA, a government agency sponsors the program, but some local lenders* handle 100% of the transaction. That means your lender does everything…
