Why your loan type matters more than you think
When you're shopping for a mortgage, it's easy to focus only on the interest rate. But the loan program you choose—fixed-rate, ARM, conventional, FHA, or VA—shapes your entire borrowing experience. Each has different rules about what you pay upfront, how your payment works over time, and what flexibility you have down the road. The right fit depends on your timeline, risk tolerance, and financial goals. If you're planning to stay in your home long-term, stability might be your priority. If you're thinking short-term, a different structure could work better. I'd love to walk you through how each option plays out for your specific situation. Reach out, and we can talk about which loan structure makes the most sense for you.
