FIXED RATE MORTGAGE

Find Financial Stability with a Fixed Rate Mortgage

What is a Fixed Rate Mortgage?

A fixed rate mortgage is the most popular loan program chosen by homeowners. If you are one of the many homeowners who desires a stable monthly interest rate and payment over the life of your loan, then a fixed rate could be the right loan for you, too.

30 Year Fixed*

  • The most popular mortgage loan program
  • A stable interest rate and reliable monthly payments over the life of your loan
  • Build equity over time and pay principal balance down faster whenever you choose

A 30-year fixed is a great option when you want peace of mind of stable monthly payments to reach your long-term financial goals.

15 Year Fixed*

  • Interest rates are typically lower than 30-year fixed*
  • A fixed rate loan that allows you to pay principal down faster than 30-year fixed*
  • Pay higher monthly payments in order to pay less in total interest over life of loan

A 15-year fixed* is a terrific option when you prefer a higher monthly payment in exchange for paying less in interest, want to pay your house off sooner, or when you have short-term plans for your home.

Fixed-Rate Mortgage FAQs

Q: What is a fixed-rate mortgage?

A fixed-rate mortgage is a home loan where the interest rate stays the same for the entire term, providing consistent monthly payments and long-term stability for homeowners.

Q: How long are typical fixed-rate mortgage terms?

Most fixed-rate mortgages come in 15-year or 30-year terms, but other options may be available depending on your goals. Shorter terms usually offer lower interest rates but higher monthly payments.

Q: Is a fixed-rate mortgage right for me?

A fixed-rate mortgage is ideal if you plan to stay in your home long-term and prefer predictable monthly payments. It protects you from market rate increases and makes budgeting easier.

Q: Fixed-rate vs. adjustable-rate — which should I choose?

A fixed-rate mortgage keeps your rate the same for the life of the loan, while an adjustable-rate mortgage often starts lower but can change over time. Fixed-rate loans suit buyers who value predictability and plan to stay put, while an ARM may fit buyers who expect to move or refinance within a few years. A local lender can compare both for your situation.
