Loan Programs

Fixed Rate Mortgages

This is the most popular option for homeowners. As the name suggests, the interest rate on the mortgage is fixed for the life of the loan. 

Pros:

  • Rate is guaranteed. You are protected in a rising rate environment.
  • No increases in P&I payment over the life of the loan. Get comfortable with payment over time.

Cons:

  • Lower payment options exist with non-fixed rate products.
Adjustable Rate Mortgages (ARMs)

ARMs have played a significant role in the expansion of homeownership across America. By offering lower initial payments, buyers find they can afford more home with an ARM. 

Pros:

  • Lower rates than fixed rate products. This equates to lower monthly payments in the early years of the mortgage.
  • You may qualify for a larger loan amount which expands the inventory of affordable homes.
  • If rates drop, your ARM could adjust downward resulting in lower payments.

Cons:

  • There is risk with adjustable features such as rate caps, index, and margin.
  • Potential rate increases in the future. ARM rates can adjust at predetermined intervals. Failure to plan for this can lead to payment shock.
  • Lifetime caps are typically as high as 5% or 6% over the initial interest rate. Analyze your situation and how that could impact your finances.

Looking to go big?

If you are shopping for a mortgage in a high-cost area or buying a large and expensive home, you may be looking for a jumbo loan.  This is a loan amount that's too big to fit in conventional conforming loan limits. You may have also seen other names for a jumbo loan such as a non-conforming loan or a high balance mortgage.

Jumbo mortgages are loans that exceed the allowable loan limits set by the FHFA (Federal Housing Finance Agency). Currently, the maximum “conforming” loan amount is over $726,200 in most areas. Certain markets in our lending area qualify for a temporary increase in the conforming loan limit a/k/a conforming jumbo…ask your loan officer for details.

If you are in the market for a jumbo mortgage, it's essential to choose a lender with experience dealing with the special requirements of jumbo loans. The Corey Scott Team has that experience.

HarborOne Mortgage offers jumbo, non-conforming loan options in a variety of categories and our team is eager to help you quickly determine which one is right for you
