In a fixed rate mortgage the principle and the interest remain the same for the entire life of the loan (Property taxes and special assessments may change), with the advantage of consistent payment, unaffected by the market fluctuations. This is a good option if you are planning to stay in that house for a long time. The only drawback for these type of loans is resulting to a higher monthly payments.

An adjustable rate mortgage (ARM) means that the interest rate changes over the life of the loan — according to the terms specified in advance. The interest rate and the monthly repayment would be less than in the fixed – rate mortgage. Most ARM programs do offer "rate cap" protection, which limits the amount of rate increase, both for each period and over the life of the loan. ARMs are usually priced lower than fixed rate mortgages so you can increase your buying power and lower your initial monthly payments. If interest rates go down, you’ll enjoy lower payments. Usually an ARM is the best choice for homeowners who plan to relocate. In ARM, monthly payments can increase if interest rates go up.

As the name suggests, these loans require almost no conventional proof of income or asset verification. This option is designed primarily for those, who cannot show proof such as pay stubs, bank statements and the like. Such a loan program however, necessitates other proofs of repayment capacity and a little higher rate of interest compared to the traditional rate. Also the terms will vary based on the borrower's financial status, the property and the credit history. The reason for this is the greater risk to be undertaken by the lender.

Loans may be arranged for borrowers with one or more of the following, subject to higher interest rates and lower loan to value ratio.

Mortgage insurance payments can be as high as 10% of the loan payment, so it is considered a qualifying criteria for the borrower’s maximum amount on loan.
