Couple buying a home with a 15 year mortgage.A 15 year home loan offers the security of a fixed rate program coupled with the accelerated pay down benefits of a shorter term product. Although fifteen years may sound like a long time down the road, you would be amazed at how much more of your payment gets put toward principle with this product rather than that of a 40 year home loan or 30 year fixed rate mortgage (especially at the earlier stages of the loan). Sure, your monthly payment will be higher but the amount of interest paid over the course of the loan will be significantly less.
