When you have questions about financing your home purchase, United Fidelity Bank is ready to serve you. Our professional loan officers will help you determine which of our mortgage products best suits your needs.
Fixed Rate 1
A fixed-rate mortgage is a home loan with the same interest rate for the entire payment period. The principal and interest payments remain the same during the entire term of the loan. The fixed payment makes budgeting easier. Terms are offered from 10 to 30 years. Low downpayment for qualified buyers.
Adjustable Rate 1
An adjustable-rate mortgage loan (ARM) is a home loan which the interest payment changes or adjusts over the life of the loan. It allows you to take advantage of a lower initial interest rate and monthly payment. An ARM may be a great option if a borrower plans a move within 5-7 years. The Bank offers 5/6 and 7/6 ARM. The rate will remain fixed for 5 or 7 years and can be adjusted every 6 months until maturity.
