I had a hard time being paid a mortgage because my surpass half’s credit was not so excellent so they had to base everything on me. The only type of loan we excellent get was a loan they called a balloon mortgage. It is fixed for 5 years at 7.25 and we were told we would be able to refinance after a couple of years. What happens if we don’t refinance. Will my monthly payment go alot higher.

I’m honestly young, so I don’t know much about this subject but I want to have some sort of plot when the time is right. I wanted to know what I need to get a excellent deal on mortgage besides excellent credit, of course. Right now, my credit score is a small over 700. I don’t have any money saved for a down payment. For this, we can use a $500,000 house as an example. Thanks for your help!

Oh, and there might be someone else being paid into it with me but that’s not certain at this time.
