Home Mortgages for the Maryland Fire Family
Adjustable Rate Mortgages
Many homeowners sell or refinance in less than 7 years. So, consider an Adjustable Rate Mortgage (ARM). Start with a lower rate and pocket the savings. If you are refinancing, check out our 5/5 or 7/1 ARM.
Fixed-Rate Mortgages
Maintain consistent payments. Refinance with a 15-year fixed rate. Pay down your mortgage faster and save thousands in interest. Consider our 30-year fixed rate if you’ve found a home to stay—no gimmicks here.
