Just as your builder created a home to match
your precise needs, RAM Mortgage
Company can design a mortgage around your specific financial
and income
conditions. Listed below are some of our more popular programs:
• Interest Only ARM
You will receive a fixed rate of interest—all of which
is tax-deductible—for the life of the loan…up
to 30 years or more.
• Conventional Loan
You will receive a fixed rate of interest—all of which
is tax-deductible— for the life
of the loan…up
to 30 years or more. The larger your down
payment, the more likely this type of mortgage financing
may be the right
choice for you.
• Adjustable Rate Mortgage
(ARM)
Start your new home ownership experience with lower monthly
payments that will increase incrementally—along with
your income and
home equity—over a preset number of years.
• Jumbo

that
exceed the conventional limits of FANNIE MAE and FREDDIE
MAC.
• No Doc Loans
As problem-solving experts, we will work with you to secure
a mortgage
that requires little or no income verification to put you
into the home of
your dreams.
• Helpful Mortgage Term: Annual
Percentage Rate (APR)
The annual percentage rate (APR) is an interest rate that is
different from the note rate. It is commonly used to compare
loan programs from different lenders. The Federal Truth in Lending
law requires mortgage companies to disclose the APR when they
advertise a rate. Typically the APR is found next to the rate.
The APR is designed to measure
the "true cost of a loan." It creates a level playing
field for lenders. It prevents lenders from advertising a low
rate and hiding fees.
The following fees ARE generally included in the APR:
- Points - both discount points and origination points
- Pre-paid interest. The interest paid from the date the loan
closes to the end of the month.
- Loan-processing fee
- Underwriting fee
- Document-preparation fee
- Private mortgage-insurance
The following fees are SOMETIMES included in the APR:
- Loan-application fee
- Credit life insurance (insurance that pays off the mortgage
in the event of a borrowers death)
The following fees are
normally NOT included in the APR:
- Title or abstract fee
- Escrow fee
- Attorney fee
- Notary fee
- Document preparation (charged by the closing agent)
- Home-inspection fees
- Recording fee
- Transfer taxes
- Credit report
- Appraisal fee
