Fixed Rate Mortgage

A Fixed Rate Mortgage offers you the security of having the same interest rate over the life of the loan. A variety of loan terms are available, but fixed rate mortgages are normally 15 or 30 years.

Adjustable Rate Mortgage (ARM)

Adjustable Rate Mortgages (ARM) may provide you with the flexibility of a lower starting interest rate and initial monthly payment. It is important to keep in mind the rate adjusts based on market rates, and fluctuates periodically based on financial market conditions, which may result in a higher monthly payment. Adjustable Rate Mortgages (ARM) have an interest rate that is fixed for an initial period (1, 3, 5, 7 or 10 years) and becomes adjustable annually for the remainder of the loan term. For example, a 5/1 ARM would have a fixed interest rate for the first five years and then the rate will adjust annually for the remaining term of the loan.

Affordable Home Loan Programs

Regions also offers several affordable home loan programs that feature flexible qualifying criteria. Borrowers can make a lower down payment than would otherwise be required and/or pay lower closing costs. Subsidies can come from a variety of sources including grants, unsecured or secured loans from non-profit organizations, government agencies or corporations. These home loan programs are available to borrowers who meet certain income requirements.

FHA Fixed Rate Loans

FHA loans are insured by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), and are available for purchase and refinance loans. They offer a low down payment and fixed monthly payments, and are popular with first-time home buyers who may not qualify for other loan programs.

VA Fixed Rate Loans

VA loans are available to US service members and veterans, and are guaranteed by the US Department of Veteran Affairs. VA loans can be used as a purchase or refinance loan for a primary residence. They require a low down payment and offer fixed monthly payments.
