Conventional Home Loans

  • Fixed Rate Mortgage: Lock in a fixed interest rate and payment for the life of the loan
  • Adjustable Rate Mortgage: Your interest rate is fixed for a certain period and then can change based on the market. This may be a good option if you believe interest rates will fall or you plan on moving within the next 5 years or so.

  • Help is available for those that need reduced down payment requirements

Peoples Bank VA loans require zero down payment and are available to veterans, service members, and select military spouses
