What is a Residential Mortgage?

A residential mortgage is a type of personal agreement between the borrower and the lender under which the lender agrees to lend a certain amount to a borrower for purchasing residential property, such as a house, condo, or apartment for personal living or investment. The borrower agrees to the statement that he/she will repay the loan in a specific period, upto 25 years. The residential mortgage, hence, depends on the choice of the lender and the eligibility of the borrower. There are some lenders that give an option to increase or decrease the term due to the current financial situation and ability of the borrower to repay.

Terms of a Residential Mortgage

Residential mortgage terms may differ from one lender to another and based on the financial condition of the applicant. There are some basic ones that are usually included, which are:

Tenure of the Loan

It is usually for 25 years, although there could be an option for a shorter or longer tenure based upon the needs of the applicant.

Interest Rates:

Fixed or variable interest rates can be applied in this case, determining how much one has to pay in terms of interest over the life of the loan.

Down Payment:

A percentage of the buy price of the property, paid up front. The most common down payment is 20%.

Monthly Payments:

Principal and interest paid monthly; some loans may also include property taxes and insurance.
Some loans also include cost of property and life insurance.

Closing Costs:

Fees and charges due at closing, and may include bank fees, government fees and Real Estate agency fees.

Frequently Asked Questions

What factors affect my mortgage interest rate?

Your mortgage interest rate is influenced by several factors, including your credit score, the size of your down payment, the term of the loan, and the overall market conditions. A higher credit score and a larger down payment can often result in a lower interest rate.

What is the difference between a fixed-rate and a variable-rate mortgage?

A fixed-rate mortgage has an interest rate that remains the same for a period of time, providing predictable monthly payments. A variable-rate mortgage has an interest rate that can change periodically based on market conditions, which can affect your monthly payments.

What documents are required for a mortgage application?

Common documents needed for a mortgage application include proof of income (such as pay stubs or tax returns), credit history, employment verification, bank statements, and information about your assets and liabilities. The exact requirements may vary depending on the lender and loan type.

What is pre-approval and why is it important?

Pre-approval is a preliminary assessment by a lender that indicates how much you can borrow based on your financial situation. It is important because it gives you a clear budget for house hunting and strengthens your offer when bidding on a property.

Can I pay off my mortgage early?

Yes, many mortgages allow for early repayment without penalties. However, it's important to check with your lender about any prepayment penalties or restrictions that may apply. Paying off your mortgage early can save you interest over the life of the loan.

What happens if I miss a mortgage payment?

Missing a mortgage payment can lead to late fees and affect your credit score. If you anticipate difficulty making a payment, contact your lender as soon as possible to discuss options such as a repayment plan or loan modification.

Can I refinance my mortgage, and when is the right time?

Yes, you can refinance your mortgage to potentially secure a lower interest rate, change your loan term, or access home equity. The right time to refinance depends on your current interest rate, how long you plan to stay in your home, and your financial goals. Our advisors can help you determine if refinancing is beneficial for you.

How can I make my mortgage payments?

Mortgage payments can typically be made through various methods, including online payments, or automatic bank transfers. We offer convenient payment options to fit your preferences.
