How much is my mortgage payment? How much can I qualify for? Should I buy now or wait? Should I refi?
My Best advice... The payment you are most comfortable with! Regardless of the highest you can qualify for. With Interest Rates at an all time low. (2.625%-15yrs fixed and 3.000%- 30yrs fixed*). It is almost a crime not to capitalize on this!
Why would you choose a 15yrs or 30yrs mortgage? Here are two sample table to help answer some of your questions. The lower the better - yes. If you qualified for a 15 yrs payment - definitely! Is there a benefit with a 30yrs mortgage program - Yes!
