A mortgage loan can be seen as the standard method by which someone can purchase residential real estate without the need to pay the full value immediately. Mortgage loans are also used to buy commercial real estate for business purpose.

The process of obtaining a loan starts by the submission of an application and other documents relative to his credit history by the borrows to his financial institution. If the documentation provided by the borrower are not satisfactory, additional documentation and conditions may be imposed. Many banks now offer mortgage loans with minimal financial information. However, these loans carry a slightly higher interest rate (between 0.25% and 0.50% higher) and are available only to borrowers with excellent credit file. Sometimes, a third party is involved, such as a mortgage broker. The mortgage broker takes the borrower's information and reviews a number of lenders, selecting the ones that will best meet the needs of the consumer in terms of conditions and mortgage loan rates .Banks and financial institutions offer different types of mortgage loans. The two basic classes of amortized loans are the FRM (fixed rate mortgage) and ARM (adjustable rate mortgage). In a FRM, the interest rate remains fixed for the duration of the mortgage loan. This means that the monthly payment is established and remain unchanged for the term loan. This term is usually for 10, 15, 20, or 30 years. In an ARM, the interest rate is fixed for a period of time (for example 5 years), after which it will periodically adjust up or down to some market index.
