A fixed-rate mortgage is the most basic type of home purchase loan on the market. Borrowers are attracted to the fixed-rate loan because of its rate stability, making it the preferred mortgage choice year after year by thousands of Americans.

WHEN A FIXED-RATE MORTGAGE MAKES SENSE TO YOU

• Fixed-rate mortgages are great options to consider when rates are low. When you choose a fixed-rate mortgage, you lock in your interest rate for the entire term of the mortgage. This protects you from rate hikes when interest rates climb in the future.

‍

• However, if, at the time of your loan application, interest rates on fixed-rate mortgage loans are high, yet expected to fall in the not-too-distant future, you should consider an adjustable-rate mortgage as your go-to solution. You can always look into a refinance for better terms and lower rates after rates drop to lower levels. Although depending on the market, adjustable rate mortgages aren’t always a better option.
