The most common are fixed-rate FHA, Conventional & VA loans. Fixed-rate means the interest rate never changes over the life of the loan. Most home buyers obtain a 30-yr loan because the monthly payments are much more affordable than a 15 yr loan. If you can afford the monthly payments of a 15 yr loan though, you may be able to secure a lower interest rate and in the end, pay a tremendous amount less for the home vs a 30 yr loan. Best of luck!

If I sell my home, will my boyfriend receive part of the sale?
I wanted some clarification before deciding to put my home on the market. My boyfriend and I purchased a home together several years ago. We split up so he signed a quitclaim deed but is obviously still on the loan. If I want to sell my home that I have been making payments on myself for the last 8 years. Does he need to sign anything and would he be entitled to any of the sale money?
