5/5 ARM

Lock in your rate for the first five years with a 5/5 adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM). Then adjusts every five years based on current market rates. This structure provides initial stability, followed by periodic flexibility, making it a good option for borrowers who want lower upfront payments and aren’t planning to stay in the home long-term.

Vacant Land Loan

Financing designed specifically for purchasing undeveloped property—think of it as the first step in turning “just dirt” into your dream build. Since there’s no home on the land (yet!), these loans often come with higher interest rates and down payment requirements. They’re ideal for borrowers planning to build in the future or invest in raw land, offering a path to ownership before construction begins.

Federal Housing Administration (FHA) Loan

An FHA loan is federally insured by the Federal Housing Administration and designed to help more people become homeowners, especially first-timers. With lower down payment requirements and more flexible credit guidelines, it's a solid option if your credit score isn't perfect or you're working with a smaller budget.

USDA Loan

Backed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, this loan is designed to help eligible buyers purchase homes in designated rural and suburban areas, with no down payment required and attractive interest rates.

It’s a special way to honor your service while helping you secure a home that fits your needs.
