Conventional
This traditional fixed-rate mortgage has a constant interest rate and monthly payments that never change, so you will always know what to expect.* If you do not want to see adjustments in your mortgage payments, this is the loan for you. Conventional loans are a good choice if you plan to stay in your home for seven years or longer. If you plan to move within seven years, then ARM loans are usually cheaper.
*Your escrow payment may go up or down depending on the change of your tax and insurance assessment.
USDA
If you need 100% financing, this Guaranteed Rural Housing Loan may be a great option. The USDA mortgage program requires no down payment, and offers a fixed rate mortgage that is USDA-guaranteed for those who qualify. This is designed for borrowers in rural areas who do not have the solid credit needed to qualify for a standard home loan. Also, your closing costs may be included in the loan.
FHA
Limited income or less than perfect credit? This loan has less stringent credit and income requirements than those of conventional loans.

Refinance Your Existing Mortgage
Refinancing a mortgage means you get a new loan to replace the old loan, which allows you to shift your debt to a better place. There may be several ways to improve the terms of your loan. Refinancing may give you the opportunity to lower your monthly payments with lower interest rates, decrease your term, or switch to an adjustable rate mortgage or fixed mortgage.
Adjustable Rate Mortage (ARM) Loans
An adjustable rate mortgage, or ARM, is a home loan with an interest rate that can change periodically. We currently offer 7/1 ARM, which features a fixed rate for 7 years. After this time period, the rate resets once per year up or down based on the level of interest rates. What is the benefit of an ARM loan? Generally, an adjustment rate mortgage (ARM) has lower monthly principal and interest payments during the initial fixed interest rate period. Later, the interest rate will be variable and will adjust annually.
