Loan Programs

What loan type are you actually in?

Most homeowners know their interest rate, but far fewer understand the loan program underneath it—and that matters. Are you in a fixed-rate mortgage, an adjustable-rate loan, or something else? Your loan type shapes your payment stability, your refinancing options down the road, and how rate movements affect your wallet. If you're unsure what you have, pull up your closing documents or give me a call—I can walk you through it in minutes. Knowing your loan structure helps you make smarter decisions about your home and your finances.

Reach out if you'd like clarity on your current loan or want to explore what might work better for your situation.

Tips for Homeowners

Year-End Tax & Mortgage Planning

1.

Consider making your January mortgage payment in December to get an extra month of deductible interest in the current tax year (consult your tax advisor first).

2.

If you plan to sell next year, now is a good time to document improvements — receipts and records add to your cost basis and reduce taxable capital gain at sale.

3.

Review your W-4 withholding if you bought a home this year — your mortgage interest deduction may mean you're having too much withheld from each paycheck.

Have questions about how any of this affects your mortgage or home purchase? We're here to help — reach out to the My Mortgage Company team any time and we'll walk you through your options.
