Choosing the right mortgage can be a difficult process, here are some points you should consider in order to succeed:
The elements to get a mortgage are analyzed in this document, in order to get a better understanding of them.
Amount to be Lent.
Banks usually grant without additional guarantees, up to 80% of the appraised value of the property. If with your current savings, you reach the 20% left, you are in the profile that banks consider affordable, otherwise you will need very high mortgage rates or additional guarantees.
Interest Rates for the Mortgage.
The banks rates are divided most of the times in 3 different groups: variable, fixed and mixed. With the variable rates one of the benefits is that when the rates are low you will pay a cheaper fee, but in the same way when rates are high you will pay more. The fixed rates most of the times are more expensive than the previous ones, but this will give you the confidence to pay the same amount of money all the time. The mixed rates will usually be fixed in the first two to five years of the loan and after that time they will change to a variable interest rate.
Mortgage Amortization Period.
The longer the repayment period means that you will have to pay more interest over time, obviously this means that the monthly fee you will pay will be lower as well, on the other hand if you chose a shorter repayment term the interest will be less since the capital return to the original lender in less time and the lower cost of the mortgage decreases; this perspective brings higher quota as more capital has to be amortized in less time.
Related Products
Some banks offer other products that can improve the general conditions of your mortgage; these products are credit cards, insurance (multi-risk and life); do not forget to ask for the cost of each one of these products and compare them with other similar opportunities in the market because some times they add extra expenses to the package and the benefits are not easy to see.
Bank Commissions
There are banks that charge higher commissions than others, it is important to know that in general the commissions are negotiable. There are different types of commissions: Opening and study, partial redemption, cancellation, subrogation (change of entity) and modification (novation in financial terms). Depending on your profile, you can negotiate these fees until they are at 0%. Except for opening and study commissions, the rest have maximum levels set by law.
