WHICH LOAN IS RIGHT FOR YOU?

In the past, every homeowner used to take the same loan which was a 30-year fixed mortgage. But now, there are various loan options available, and picking the right one can help you save hundreds of dollars on your monthly payments.

How Long Do You Plan On Living In The House? We Recommend:
Not Very Long (1-3 Years) 3/1 ARM, 1 year ARM or 6 month ARM
A few years (3-5 Years) 5/1 ARM
At least 5 years (5-7 years) 7/1 ARM
Around 10 years ( 7-10 years) 10/1 ARM, 30 yr fixed or 15 yr fixed
A long time (10 plus years) 30 year fixed or 15 year fixed
