Mortgage Key Terms

  • The price of the home you are looking to purchase. This will be the total cost of the property, excluding any additional fees such as taxes or insurance.

  • The amount you are paying upfront for the property. It's typically a percentage of the total home price. A higher down payment can reduce your monthly mortgage payment.

  • The annual interest rate charged by your lender on the mortgage loan. The interest rate directly affects how much you will pay over the life of the loan. You can often negotiate this rate depending on your credit score and market conditions.

  • The length of time you agree to pay off your mortgage. Common loan terms are 15 years and 30 years. A shorter term usually results in higher monthly payments but less interest paid over the life of the loan. A longer term reduces monthly payments but increases total interest paid.

  • The total amount of the loan after subtracting your down payment. This is the amount that the mortgage is based on and that you will be repaying.

  • The amount you will pay every month toward your mortgage. It includes both principal and interest. Your monthly payment will not include other costs like property taxes, homeowners insurance, or private mortgage insurance (PMI), but they may be included in your total monthly payment if required by your lender.

  • The amount charged by the county each year based on the assessed value of your home. Property taxes help fund local services like schools, emergency response, and infrastructure. Your lender may include this in your monthly mortgage payment if they manage an escrow account for you.

  • The amount you pay for insurance that protects your home against potential damages from events like fire, theft, or natural disasters. Most lenders require homeowners insurance, and it is often included in your monthly mortgage payment if your lender uses an escrow account.
