Loan Loan Type Loan type is the type of repayment schedule agreed to for a loan through monthly payments of the principal and/or interest. There are generally two loan types, Fixed or Adjustable, and many variations within each type. Generally speaking, ARM rates are based on the annual rate cap for products that are not fixed for at least the first five years. To determine the annual cap - divide the rate cap at the first adjustment by the number of years until the first adjustment. Example, a 1 year ARM with 2% periodic cap would have an annualized cap of 2%. Since the annual cap is greater than 1%, the loan would get 2% ARM rates. Below are some examples to help you determine the appropriate type to select: Fixed Rate/Fixed Payment - A mortgage where the interest rate and payments remain the same for the life of the loan. 1% ARM - An adjustable-rate mortgage with a 1% annual rate adjustment cap. e.g., a six month ARM with a.5% periodic cap would have an annualized cap of 1%, thus the interest rate may increase a maximum of 1% annually. Choose this selection when your ARM structure is not detailed below and your ARM has a 1% annual adjustment cap. 2% ARM - An adjustable-rate mortgage with an annual rate cap greater than 1%. e.g., at the first adjustment the interest rate may increase a maximum of 2%. Choose this selection when your ARM program structure is not detailed below and your ARM has an annual rate cap greater than 1%. 2/1 ARM - An adjustable-rate mortgage that has an initial fixed interest rate for the first 2 years, and thereafter has a yearly interest rate adjustment. Each annual rate adjustment is based on (or "indexed to") another rate -- often the yield on a Treasury note. 3/1 ARM - An adjustable-rate mortgage that has an initial fixed interest rate for the first 3 years, and thereafter has a yearly interest rate adjustment. Each annual rate adjustment is based on (or "indexed to") another rate -- often the yield on a Treasury note. 3/3 ARM - An adjustable-rate mortgage that has an initial fixed interest rate for the first 3 years with an annual adjustment every 36 months, thereafter. 5/1 ARM - An adjustable-rate mortgage that has an initial fixed interest rate for the first 5 years and thereafter has a yearly interest rate adjustment. Each annual rate
adjustment is based on (or "indexed to") another rate -- often the yield on a Treasury note. 7/1 ARM - An adjustable-rate mortgage that has an initial fixed interest rate for the first 7 years and thereafter has a yearly interest rate adjustment. Each annual rate adjustment is based on (or "indexed to") another rate -- often the yield on a Treasury note. 10/1 ARM - An adjustable-rate mortgage that has an initial fixed interest rate for the first 10 years and thereafter has a yearly interest rate adjustment. Each annual rate adjustment is based on (or "indexed to") another rate -- often the yield on a Treasury note. 15/1 ARM - An adjustable-rate mortgage that has an initial fixed interest rate for the first 15 years and thereafter has a yearly interest rate adjustment. Each annual rate adjustment is based on (or "indexed to") another rate -- often to the yield on a Treasury note. 5+ Yr. ARM - Is an ARM that adjusts every 5 years, 7 years, or 10 years. This product gets fixed rates. 2 Step Mortgage - A loan where the interest rate stays the same for a stated period then has one-time adjustment, typically after 5 to 7 years. Growing Equity Mortgage - A Growing Equity Mortgage is a mortgage in which increases in the borrower's mortgage payments are used to accelerate the reduction of principal on the mortgage. Due to increased payments, the borrower acquires equity more rapidly. GPM - Fixed Rate - A fixed rate mortgage with features that allow for payment changes up to 2% per year for some fixed period of time. Transaction may not result in negative amortization (neither potential nor scheduled). Amortization Type A scheduled period of time in which the loan is repaid through agreed payments of principal and/or interest. Fully (Positive) Amortized - The payment of a mortgage in installments over an agreed-upon period, during which principal and interest are paid off in equal payments. Option Payment - Every month borrowers are given various payment options to choose from. Examples of payment options are minimum payment due, interest only
payment, or fully amortizing payment. Interest Only - A mortgage on which, for some period, the monthly mortgage payment consists of interest only. During this period, the loan balance remains unchanged. Potential Negative Amortization - Negative Amortization occurs when the minimum monthly payments do not cover the monthly principal and interest due. If the minimum monthly payments are not enough to cover both the interest and principal due, the difference is added to the principal, increasing the loan's outstanding balance. Loan Purpose Select the Loan Purpose from the drop-down list. Options are: Purchase - Also known as a purchase money transaction, the funds are used to finance the purchase of the subject property.
