A fixed rate mortgage is a loan in which the interest rate is fixed for the life of the loan. Fixed rate mortgage loans usually offer a slightly higher initial interest rate than adjustable rate mortgage loans, but they provide predictable, fixed monthly principal and interest payments. This may make fixed rate loans more attractive to borrowers on a fixed income or to those who prefer not to take the interest rate risk associated with an adjustable rate mortgage.
