Frequently Asked Questions


A mortgage is a loan you can borrow from a financial institution or private lenders to finance the purchase of a home or any other real estate.

You agree to repay the loan borrowed on agreed terms including interest rate, payment amount, and timeline.

Your home act as a collateral, your lender has the legal right to take possession of your home and sell it to recover the money owed.

In open mortgage, you can repay all or a part of your mortgage at any time during the term without paying any prepayment charge. Open mortgage usually has higher interest rates than closed mortgage. But open mortgage provides you the flexibility until you are certain to lock into closed mortgage.

In closed mortgage you are bounded by the payment terms for the entire term and not allowed to prepay the mortgage. Closed mortgage offers lower interest rates as compared to open mortgage. In most cases the interest savings of a closed mortgage outweighs the flexibility of an open mortgage.

If you have a fixed-rate mortgage, your interest rate and monthly payments are locked in for the term of your mortgage unaffected by any change in SASCU Prime Rate.

If you have a variable-rate mortgage, your interest rate will fluctuate with the SASCU Prime Rate. Your mortgage agreement explains how and when your interest rate will change. Your monthly payment amount may stay the same. But if interest rates go down, more portion of your monthly payment will go towards paying down the principal. If interest rate goes up, more portion of your monthly payment goes towards the interest.
