Fixed-Rate Mortgage Loan
Make your financial future secure by opting for a fixed-rate mortgage loan. This type of mortgage loan can be a Conventional, FHA, VA, USDA or Jumbo mortgage loan. A fixed-rate mortgage loan guarantees that the interest rate associated with the loan will remain the same throughout the entire term of the mortgage, regardless of who is backing or insuring the loan.
Understanding Fixed-Rate Mortgage Loan
A fixed-rate mortgage is a type of home mortgage where the interest rate remains the same throughout the entire loan term, whether it is 10, 15, 20, 25, or 30 years. This protects homebuyers and homeowners from rising rates, providing them with predictability and stability in their mortgage payments. With Fairway, borrowers can choose the length of their loan term to fit their financial goals. The shorter the loan term, the higher the monthly mortgage payment will be, but the faster they will build equity in their home.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Is a Fixed-Rate Mortgage?
A fixed-rate mortgage is a type of home mortgage in which the interest rate remains the same throughout the entire life of the loan, regardless of whether the loan has a traditional 30-year or 15-year term. The interest rate that you lock in at the time of your purchase will be the same rate you pay from your first payment until your last payment at the end of the loan term.
Fixed-rate mortgages provide protection to homebuyers and homeowners against rising interest rates. At Global Capital Advisors, we offer the flexibility of selecting the length of your loan term, including 10 years, 15 years, 20 years, 25 years, or 30 years, depending on the loan type.

What rates can I expect for a fixed-rate mortgage?
The interest rates for fixed-rate mortgages are subject to fluctuations based on various factors such as seasonal shifts, shifts in the US economy, and global events.

To be eligible for a reverse mortgage, borrowers must obtain a certificate by attending counseling sessions with a HUD-approved agency. The borrower must be at least 62 years old. Loan proceeds are not considered income and will not impact Social Security or Medicare benefits. However, your monthly reverse mortgage advances may affect your eligibility for certain other programs. Consult a local program office or an attorney to determine how, or if, monthly reverse mortgage payments could affect your specific situation. At the end of the reverse mortgage loan contract term, you may no longer own some or all of the equity in the property subject to the reverse mortgage, and you might need to sell or transfer the property to repay the reverse mortgage proceeds with interest from your assets. We will charge fees for origination, mortgage insurance, closing costs, or servicing for the reverse mortgage, which we will add to the loan balance. The reverse mortgage loan balance grows over time, and interest will be charged on the outstanding loan balance. You retain the title to the property subject to the reverse mortgage until you sell or transfer it, and you are responsible for paying property taxes, insurance, and maintenance. Failure to pay these amounts may cause the reverse mortgage loan to become due immediately. Interest on a reverse mortgage is not deductible on your income tax return until you repay all or part of the loan.
