Fixed Mortgage Rates vs. Variable Mortgage Rates

Fixed Mortgage Rate: A fixed rate means that your interest rate remains the same (fixed) for the entire term (duration) of the mortgage. Generally, this means the percentage of interest will be a little higher since the lending institution may be losing money in the future if the interest rates rise. A fixed rate mortgage provides a buyer with the serenity of knowing the cost of their interest will stay the same over time. This means your payment and the amount that goes towards reducing the principal (original mortgage amount) will remain the same over time as well.

Variable Rate: A variable rate means the percentage of interest that you are repaying will vary based on the changes in the interest rate(s) of the overall market. Typically, fluctuations in your interest rate will not alter your monthly payment, but will vary the amount of your monthly payment that goes towards reducing your principal (original loan amount). This means if overall interest rates go down you will actually be paying off your mortgage more quickly. On the other hand, if interest rates increase, you will be paying off your mortgage more slowly. Accepting a variable rate does involve a certain amount of risk but can work to the advantage of the buyer over time.

Open Mortgage v.s Closed Mortgage

Open Mortgage: An open mortgage means that the loan can be paid back partially or in full without incurring any penalties. The mortgage can also be renegotiated if market conditions or your financial situation shift. Although an open mortgage provides more options and opportunities for life adjustments, this comes at a cost, as the interest rates for this type of loan tend to be higher. For those able to make larger payments or who plan on selling their home within a short period of time; however, an open mortgage can be a solid choice.

Closed Mortgage: The advantage of a closed mortgage is that the interest rates tend to be lower, but options are limited. Typically a homeowner may make extra payments or larger payments as long as the sum of the payments does not exceed a set amount determined in the loan agreement. Payments exceeding the agreed upon amount; however, would incur penalties.

Although most buyers will elect to choose a closed mortgage, there are advantages to choosing the open mortgage. For instance, if market conditions are expected to change, the type of mortgage should be balanced against the type of interest rate so that as the buyer your needs are met.
