Loans from US
At US Mortgage Corporation we offer a wide product suite to accomodate a variety of different funding needs.
Each Loan we create is custom tailored to best suit your specific funding needs.
Below are a sample of what we have to offer you:
30 Year Fixed Rate Mortgage
The traditional 30 year fixed rate mortgage has a constant interest rate and principal payments that never change (taxes and insurance payments will likely change over the course of the loan).
This may be a good choice if you plan to stay in your home for seven years or longer. If you plan to move within seven years, then adjustable rate loans are usually cheaper.
As a rule of thumb, it may be harder to qualify for fixed rate loans than for adjustable rate loans. When interest rates are low, fixed rate loans are generally not that much more expensive than adjustable rate mortgages, and may be a better deal in the long run, because you can lock in the rate for the life of your loan.
15 Year Fixed Rate Mortgage
This loan is fully amortized over a 15 year period and features constant monthly payments. It offers all the advantages of the 30 year loan, plus a lower interest rate. And, you'll pay off your mortgage twice as fast.
The disadvantage is that with a 15 year loan you commit to a higher monthly payment. Many borrowers opt for a 30 year fixed rate loan and voluntarily make larger payments that will pay off their loan in 15 years. This approach is often safer than committing to a higher monthly payment, since the difference in interest rates isn't that great.
FHA Mortgage
The Federal Housing Administration, generally known as "FHA", provides mortgage insurance on loans made by FHA-approved lenders throughout the United States. FHA insures mortgages on single family and multifamily homes. An FHA loan allows for the refinance or purchase of a home with a low down payment. These loans are great for the first-time home buyer.

VA Mortgage
Your military service may qualify you for a no down payment home mortgage through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. More than 25 million veterans are eligible for VA financing, though less than 10% take advantage of the opportunity. A VA Mortgage is one of the only loan programs that still allows the borrower to finance 100% of the home’s value and purchase with $0 down.
2/1 Buy Down Mortgage
The 2/1 Buy Down Mortgage allows the borrower to qualify at below market rates so they can borrow more. The initial starting interest rate increases by 1% at the end of the first year and adjusts again by another 1% at the end of the second year. It then remains at a fixed interest rate for the remainder of the loan term. Borrowers often refinance at the end of the second year to obtain the best long-term rates. However, keeping the loan in place even for three full years or more will keep their average interest rate in line with the original market conditions.
Adjustable Rate Mortgage (ARM)
When it comes to ARMs there's a basic rule to remember: The longer you ask the lender to charge you a specific rate, the more expensive the loan.
Hybrid ARM (3/1 ARM, 5/1 ARM, 7/1 ARM)
These increasingly popular ARMS, also called 3/1, 5/1 or 7/1, can offer the best of both worlds: lower interest rates (like ARMs) and a fixed payment for a longer period of time than most adjustable rate loans. For example, a 5/1 loan has a fixed monthly payment and interest rate for the first five years and then turns into a traditional adjustable rate loan, based on then-current rates for the remaining 25 years. It's a good choice for people who expect to move (or refinance) before or shortly after the adjustment occurs.
Annual ARM
This loan has a rate that is recalculated once a year.
Monthly ARM
With this loan, the interest rate is recalculated every month. Compared to other options, the rate is usually lower on this ARM because the lender is only committing to a rate for a month at a time, so vulnerability is significantly reduced.
Balloon Mortgage
A Balloon Mortgage is a mortgage which does not fully amortize over the term of the note, thus leaving a balance due at maturity. The final payment is called a balloon payment because of its large size. A Balloon Payment Mortgage may have a fixed or adjustable interest rate.
Reverse Mortgage
A Reverse Mortgage is a loan that enables senior homeowners, age 62 and older, to convert part of their home equity into tax-free* income without having to sell their home, give up title to it or make monthly mortgage payments. The loan only becomes due when the last borrower(s) permanently leaves the home. * Consult Tax Advisor.
Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM)
Home Equity Conversion Mortgages are Reverse Mortgages insured by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The HECM FHA insured Reverse Mortgage can be used by senior homeowners age 62 and older to convert the equity in their home into monthly streams of income and/or a line of credit to be repaid when they no longer occupy the home. The loan, commonly known as HECM, is funded by a lending institution such as a mortgage lender, bank, credit union or savings and loan association. To assist the homeowner in making an informed decision of whether this program meets their needs, they are required to receive consumer education and counseling by a HUD-approved HECM counselor.
