An adjustable rate mortgage usually starts with a lower initial interest rate. After an initial fixed period, the interest rate is reviewed annually and adjusted annually, based on the movement of a specified index. ARMs are subject to a lifetime cap and annual adjustment cap. Your monthly payment changes as the rate changes. ARM loans can be beneficial when interest rates remain steady or decrease, because your initial rate will be lower. If the rate increases, you may adjust to a higher payment as your income increases.

This First National Bank North product offers first time home buyers the opportunity to purchase their first primary dwelling without complications. This loan combines convenience, efficiency, a low down payment and a special low rate.

A home equity loan, either fixed or variable rate, is a loan that uses the equity in your home as security. Home equity loans can be for home improvement, purchase of an auto or other consumer goods.  Home equity loans may also provide a tax deduction (consult a tax advisor for details).

Home equity lines of credit offer financial convenience.  First National Bank North offers a line of credit secured by the equity you have in your home.  It can be used to purchase an auto, boat, RV, finance a wedding, etc.  Once your application is approved and a credit line determined, you can conveniently access your loan account by simply writing a check.

A conventional loan through the Secondary Market can be a fixed rate, adjustable rate or balloon mortgage. For as little as 5% down, you can purchase a home to be used as a primary residence, second home, or an investment property.
