Fixed Rate Mortgage A fixed rate mortgage is very popular among people who want stability in their budget planning. With a UniBank Fixed Rate Mortgage you will have the same monthly payment over the life of your mortgage. There are a variety of options available to you, tailored to your decision either to reduce up-front costs or to make lower monthly payments. Choose the term that is right for you and fits best with your financial goals. Also, there are low down payment options available. Many customers may choose to refinance with a Fixed Rate Mortgage to secure a more favorable interest rate. Adjustable Rate Mortgage (ARM) The major benefit of an ARM is that the initial rate is usually lower than that of a Fixed Rate Mortgage. The resulting lower principal and interest payments may allow for the purchase of a more expensive home. Annual and lifetime rate caps and the frequency of adjustments to your payments may vary with different mortgage products. This is an excellent loan if you are planning on buying your home and living in it for a short period of time or if you feel rates may be lower in the near future. The ARM may be offered with or without points. Additionally, some ARMs may be offered with a fixed rate conversion option prior to the fifty-ninth payment with no fees and no additional closing costs (some restrictions do apply). A variety of terms are available, so you can pick the one that suits your needs. Low down payment options are also available. The Annual Percentage Rate is subject to change over the life of the loan. First Time Home Buyer Mortgage UniBank understands that buying your first home is a major step.
