Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a fixed-rate and adjustable-rate mortgage?expand_more
A fixed-rate mortgage maintains the same interest rate for the entire life of the loan, providing predictable payments. An adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) typically offers a lower initial rate for a set period, after which the rate fluctuates based on market indices.
How much should I spend on a home monthly?expand_more
A common rule of thumb is the 28/36 rule: your mortgage payment shouldn't exceed 28% of your gross monthly income, and your total debt payments shouldn't exceed 36%.
What is Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI)?expand_more
PMI is a type of insurance that protects the lender if you default on your loan. It's usually required if your down payment is less than 20% of the home's purchase price.
Can I pay off my mortgage early?expand_more
Yes, most modern mortgages allow for early repayment or extra principal payments without penalty. This can significantly reduce the total interest paid over the life of the loan.
How do interest rates affect my purchasing power?expand_more
Even a 1% increase in interest rates can reduce your purchasing power by roughly 10%. As rates go up, your monthly payment for the same loan amount increases, often forcing buyers to look at lower-priced homes.
