Choosing the right mortgage isn't just about getting approved- it's about finding the option that fits your financial goals: See below for a description of both, so that you may determine which one would be the most beneficial for your circumstances.
A 15-Year Mortgage
Pay off your home sooner.
Lower interest rate.
Build Equity Faster.
Higher monthly payments.
A 30-Year Mortgage
Lower monthly payments.
More room in your monthly budget.
Flexibility to make extra payments when you choose.
You'll pay more interest over the life of the loan.
There isn't a one- size fits-all answer. The best mortgage is the one that supports your
lifestyle, budget, and long term plans.
If you're buying a home in Pembroke Pines, Miramar, Davie, Cooper City, Southwest
Ranches, or anywhere in South Florida, I'd be happy to connect you with trusted local lenders, and help you understand your options, before you start your home search.
