#114 Christina Suter: Education- What Loan is Right For You

August 6, 2021

“You can take a 30 year fixed and make it perform as if it’s a 15 year. Why would you do that, because it gives you options in case your plans change.” -Christina Suter 

Today I am sharing with you the different types of loans available when looking to purchase a single family property. First, be mindful that what will work for one person may or may not work for the other, so due diligence is priority when it comes to choosing the right loan for you. The most commonly known mortgage loans are a 30 year fixed, a 15 year fixed and variable loans. I personally am a fan of the 30 year fixed because of its predictability. Variable loans are not at the top of my list for reasons like negative amortization or not being able to predict if interest rates will increase and at what time. Every person or investor is different so choosing the right loan for you is what’s most important and you can do that by doing your due diligence, consulting with an advisor and weighing out your options.
