While finding out her specific goals for the refinance I learned that she was a foster mom and cared for multiple "crack" babies that had been taken away from their mothers at birth because of testing positive for an illegal substance during labor,” states Gary Rees of GoldMedalMortgage.com“She was trying to utilize the equity in her home to remodel and add a bedroom to make it more comfortable for the two teenage and two newborn children her and her husband care for. ” “For their situation I decided that a Pay Option mortgage loan program would give them the cash flow needed to cover shortfalls. It also lowered their mortgage payment over 1500 a month,” continues Rees.A Pay Option Mortgage Loan allows the complete flexibility to decide, every month, which of four mortgage payments you would like to make.This program is ideal for anybody that has fluctuating income such as the self-employed. Pay Option is also an excellent choice if you are looking to buy a new home and want the lowest possible monthly payment, or if you simply just want to lower your existing mortgage payment.The Pay Option Mortgage is a relatively new product that allows you four payment options each month.1. 15 year payment- Pay your loan off and build equity faster as well as save thousands of dollars in interest2. 30 year payment- This option will let you know how much to pay to have your home free and clear in the standard thirty years3. Interest only option- This option allows you to pay only the interest portion of your monthly payment so you can increase monthly cash flow4. 1% Minimum payment-This option allows you to pay your mortgage at a 1% rate of interest for maximum savingsThe Pay Option Mortgage is the absolute best adjustable mortgage product available today.
