Loan program
Fixed Rate Mortgage
A predictable rate and payment for the life of the loan — the classic American home loan.
A fixed-rate mortgage locks in your interest rate so your principal and interest payment never changes, making budgeting simple from year one to year thirty.
A fixed-rate mortgage is the most popular home loan in America for a reason: certainty. Your interest rate is set the day you close and never changes — for 10, 15, 20, or 30 years.
Each month you pay the same principal and interest. Property taxes and insurance may fluctuate, but the loan portion of your payment is rock-solid. That makes budgeting easy for retirees on fixed incomes, growing families, and anyone who values predictability.
Evergreen Ridge Financial Group offers conforming and jumbo fixed-rate mortgages with competitive pricing, no junk fees, and same-day pre-approval letters.

Questions people ask about this one
Is a 15 or 30 year better?
A 15-year loan has a lower rate and dramatically less total interest paid, but a higher monthly payment. A 30-year keeps monthly payments lower and gives you flexibility.
Can I pay extra to pay it off early?
Yes. There is no prepayment penalty on our conventional fixed-rate loans. Even one extra payment a year can shave 4–6 years off a 30-year mortgage.
What credit score do I need?
Conventional fixed-rate loans typically require a 620 minimum. Better rates open up at 680, 720, and 760.
How is the rate determined?
Rates are driven by 10-year Treasury yields, your credit profile, loan-to-value ratio, and loan size.
