It has one main benefit over all other types of loan.
Stability. No matter what happens with fluctuating interest
rates, you are guaranteed the same payment each month for
the entire term of your loan.

This really helps give people peace of mind because they
donít have to wonder if their next loan payment will be
higher than the previous one.

Some people are very meticulous when it comes to bills and
donít want to feel like they are gambling on the real
estate market.

This is what helps make a fixed rate mortgage so appealing.
The payments donít change so you have a much better chance
of being able to save up money for home repairs, vacations,
and new purchases.

This loan is also good for people who have to travel a lot.
Knowing your payment will be the same when you get back
from a far away place can really help your state of mind.

Most lenders who will give you a fixed rate mortgage will
give you the option to pay off some of the principal early
without any penalties.
