What are the most commonly used types of mortgages?

There are a few major different types of mortgages that homebuyers choose, which are:

* Fixed-rate mortgages – these loans remain the same for the life of the loan, so you’ll always know what your monthly payments are.

* Adjustable-rate mortgages – with these loans, the interest rate usually starts out low during the introductory period and then changes to be higher or lower. They are displayed like this, for example: a 5/1 ARM. In this case, the introductory period lasts 5 years, and then the interest rate can change every year after that. The change is dependent on a market index (like the yield on the one-year Treasury bill) which is noted on your loan.

* Conventional loans – these can be good if you have a higher credit score, and the borrowing cost can be lower even when interest rates are high. These can be fixed or adjustable, and they differ because they are not government-backed and tend to be harder to qualify for.

* Government-insured loans – these are insured by the government, so lenders have less to risk if you don’t pay on time (FHA loans fall under this category).

* VA loans – according to the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs, VA home loans are designed to help servicemembers, veterans, and eligible surviving spouses become homeowners. The VA guarantees a portion of the loan, enabling the lender to provide you with more favorable terms.

We’re seeing Austin’s housing market shift more toward a buyer’s market each day. In order to be able to act quickly on a home you are interested in, knowing your financing options and working with an experienced agent will give you a competitive edge. Let’s chat to go over your real estate goals!

What's a Mortgage Rate Lock?

Mortgage interest rates have undergone dramatic changes in 2022, and they can even change multiple times a day, sometimes rising and falling. It is important to understand how a mortgage rate lock can protect you from the time you apply for your loan and the time you close on your home.

A mortgage rate lock guarantees the rate on your mortgage stays the same from the time you are first quoted a rate to the time you close. With inflation, rising home costs, and rate changes by the Federal Reserve, mortgage interest rates have been rising and changing by the day. In a shifting market, the best thing you can do is be informed about the options you have to protect your buying power.

Regardless of whether you decide to lock the rate or not, you should shop around and talk to a few different lenders, including both big national banks and small local banks. Each lender offers slightly different terms and conditions, and since buying a house is likely to be one of the most expensive purchases in your lifetime, it's worth spending some extra time to get the best possible deal. Small differences in the terms might end up to a lot over the course of the entire mortgage period.

Every situation is different, and it’s best to reach out to a professional if you have questions about your unique circumstances. Let’s talk so you can make an informed decision that meets your buying or selling goals!
