Only about 20 years ago choosing a mortgage was a mortgage refinancing easy choice. You made the decision if you wanted a fixed rate or an adjustable rate mortgage, 15 year or 30 year term. My how the mortgage market has changed since then. Now there is dozens of choices mortgage refinancing terms. Surely there is a mortgage that fits your needs, keeping your financial goals in mind?
The mortgage market now offers 10, 15, 25, 30, 40 and yes!, even 50 year terms. It offers Option ARMS, Pick a pay, Hybrid option ARMS, etc., etc., etc. There are just too many to even name! With all of these choices, which one is right for you? Read on!
To determine which mortgage is right for you, one must carefully take a look at his/her present financial picture, as well as their projected financial future. Many things need to be considered before making the decision. I suggest making this decision by taking the first and most important step. Choose a broker or lender who is willing to make an appointment with you and discuss your financial needs and goals. I also reccomend that you make an appointment with more than one broker. After you have met with 2 or more mortgage brokers, make a decision based on what mortgage program offered makes you feel most comfortable. Yes, it's a big decision, so base your decision with good sound business like judgement. Ask the right questions, pros and cons and take notes. Is this a home that you wish to spend the rest of your life in? Is this home just a stepping stone to the home of your dreams? Is this house the home you will spend your retirement years in? Don't forget to consider all of these things before you make your selection.
Take your time, interview more than one mortgage broker and do your homework. It's not rocket science once you learn whats available out there. Take your time and good luck!
