A 20-year fixed-rate mortgage is a home loan that has a repayment period of 20 years. It has an interest rate that does not change throughout the life of the loan.
These rates and APRs are current as of $date and may change at any time. They assume you have a FICO® Score of 740+ and at least 25% equity, that the loan is for a single-family home as your primary residence and that you will purchase up to one mortgage point.
Mortgage points, or discount points, are a form of prepaid interest you can choose to pay up front in exchange for a lower interest rate and monthly payment. One mortgage point is equal to about 1% of your total loan amount, so on a $250,000 loan, one point would cost you about $2,500. Connect with a mortgage loan officer to learn more about mortgage points.
