Fixed-rate Mortgages

Your rate will remain the same over the life of your loan.

Pros of a Fixed-rate Mortgage:

  • Monthly payments are more predictable than an Adjustable-rate Mortgage
  • If market rates increase, your mortgage rate will not be affected

Cons of a Fixed-rate Mortgage:

  • If market rates decrease, you'll need to apply for refinancing if you want to lower your rate

Adjustable-rate Mortgages (ARMs)

ARMs typically offer a lower initial rate than a Fixed-rate Mortgage. After a specified number of years, the initial rate becomes variable and may adjust periodically with the market.

Pros of an ARM:

  • Because the initial rate is fixed at a reduced rate, initial payments are predictable and typically lower than a comparable Fixed-rate Mortgage
  • If market rates increase, rate caps protect you from extreme increases to your rate and monthly payments
  • If market rates decrease, you'll enjoy lower monthly payments without needing to apply for refinancing

Cons of an ARM:

  • Payments can vary after your initial fixed rate expires
