Clearwater Mortgages & Loan Information
Fixed-Rate Mortgages
The interest rate may be your main consideration if you expect to stay
in your house for a long time. With a fixed-rate mortgage, you can be
sure that your interest rate will stay the same for the entire life
of your loan. Fixed-rate mortgages are available in a variety of repayment
terms, with 15, 20, and 30 years the most common. In Florida and most
of the US longer mortgage terms make more sense because the interest
can be deducted from your income taxes. It is best to speak with a Clearwater
Florida mortgage broker before deciding on the term of your mortgage.
