A fixed rate mortgage is a great option if you plan to live in your home for a long time. It features a stable, unchanging interest rate that doesn’t rise or drop with market rates. This means your monthly mortgage payments will be the same throughout the duration of your loan. In the event that market rates should drop below your fixed interest rate, you can apply to refinance your mortgage to save on your monthly payments. Fixed rate mortgages are available in a variety of term lengths ranging from 10 years to 30 years.
Eligibility
