Mortgage Loans

January 31st, 2008 · No Comments

A mortgage loan is a loan that is secured by real property through the use of a legal instrument that is called a ‘mortgage.’ Mortgages are obtained by home buyers and builders in order to pay for the piece of property they are trying to purchase. Different variables go into the overall mortgage loan, including the amount that is to be borrowed, when the loan will mature (meaning when it will end by the borrower making the last payment on the loan), the method used by the borrower to pay the loan, the interest rate that the borrower will pay for the privilege of borrowing, as well as various other elements of the loan, depending on the terms.

Mortgages are generally structured to be paid over a longer period than most other types of loans, but generally, mortgages are taken out by the borrower for 30 years or 15 years for typical home purchases, and a slew of varying time frames for HELOCs (Home Equity Line of Credits), and other type loans. Some of these loans include:

  • 30 Year Fixed Mortgage
  • 15 Year Fixed Mortgage
  • 1 Year ARM (Adjustable Rate Mortgage)
  • 7/1 ARM
  • 5/1 ARM
  • 3/1 ARM (Interest Only)
  • 5/1 ARM (Interest Only)
  • 30 Year Fixed Jumbo Mortgage
  • Home Equity Loan
  • Home Equity Line of Credit

The above mortgage loans and HELOCs are made available by lenders to accommodate the varying needs of the consumer or builder seeking financial options that suit their immediate needs.
