Mortgage Loans in Texas
By Jason Holter
Based on the most recent data mortgage rates for thirty year fixed mortgages are at a historic low, and the amount of points charged varies per lender, based on many factors including the loan amount, longevity of the loan and your credit score. There are various types of loans available, including fixed rate mortgage loans, adjustable rate mortgage loans (ARM), home equity loans, home equity lines of credit (HELOC) and more.
It is very important to consider the type of loan you need to meet your current financial situation and consider your future needs.
Fixed Rate Mortgage
This is your parent's financing. Prior to the internet, when most people stayed at the same job until retirement and families weren't as mobile as today; this loan was the epitome of stability. With fixed rates, the interest rates and payments stay the same for the term of the loan.
Balloon Mortgages
Balloon financing always seem attractive in the beginning. These loans generally offer a fixed rate for several years. At the end of the fixed rate portion of the loan, payment is due in full. If at the end of the term you are unable to pay you have few options. You can refinance but you will be subject to current interest rates or you may find yourself in default.
The 5/5 & 5/1 Adjustable Rate Mortgage
This offers a stable payment and interest rate for the first five years. In the sixth year the interest rates, and therefore the payments, are adjusted every five years for the 5/5 arm and every year for the 5/1 arm.
Refinancing in Texas
In some instances, refinancing your current mortgage loan can help you lower your monthly payment. Borrowers can borrow against the equity built up in their home at a lower cost than they can from other sources. Like most mortgage interest, another benefit to refinancing is that if you pay off credit cards, the interest you pay will now be tax deductible.
The rates and points on each loan will vary. As with any major consideration, it is imperative to consider all of your options and utilize all of the resources available to make an educated financial decision. Talk to a reputable mortgage lender and ask them to explain some important points in finding the right loan for you.
