A mortgage is a loan that helps you finance the purchase of a home. You repay it over time, typically with interest, while enjoying the benefits of homeownership from day one.
Type of Mortgages
FHA Loans: Government-insured loans that may offer lower down payment and more flexible qualification options.
VA Loans: Available to eligible veterans, active-duty service members, and certain surviving spouses, often with no down payment required.
USDA Loans: Available to eligible buyers and properties in qualifying areas, with low or no down payment options.
Jumbo Loans: Loans that exceed applicable conforming loan limits and are often used for higher-priced properties.
