Home Mortgage Loans
We understand that every homebuyer is unique, which is why we’re thrilled to offer a wide range of mortgage solutions tailored specifically to your needs, financial situation, and goals in Columbia. From the reliability of fixed-rate mortgages to the flexibility of adjustable-rate mortgages (ARMs), our solutions are designed to adapt seamlessly to your evolving needs over time.
With our fixed-rate mortgages, you’ll enjoy the peace of mind of consistent payments throughout the loan term, providing stability amidst market fluctuations. Our loan terms span from 10 to 30 years, and we’ll collaborate closely with you to find the option that aligns best with your long-term plans and current financial position.
If you anticipate significant life changes such as a career shift or future refinancing, our ARM products may be the ideal solution for you. Take advantage of lower initial rates combined with a fixed-rate period upfront, enabling you to benefit from competitive pricing while maintaining flexibility down the road.
As experienced Columbia home mortgage lenders, we specialize in government loan programs like FHA, VA, and USDA options, which offer unique benefits such as low down payment requirements, flexible credit criteria, and attractive rates. Our knowledgeable experts will guide you through every step to ensure you make the most of these programs.
Construction and Renovation Loans
Whether you’re dreaming of building a custom home in Columbia or planning to renovate an existing property, our seasoned lending professionals are here to support you every step of the way. From financing new construction to funding renovation projects, we offer tailored solutions to meet the specific scope of your project. With options for acquisition and development financing as well as renovation mortgages, our loans will help you finance every step of your journey.
Refinancing and Specialty Loan Programs
Sometimes, your home needs change. If you’re considering refinancing to lower your monthly mortgage payments, shorten your loan term, or access your home’s equity, our dedicated Columbia team will carefully assess your goals to chart the optimal course forward. Whether it involves reducing your current interest rate, adjusting your loan term, or using equity for renovations or debt consolidation, we’ll work closely with you to find the perfect solution.
For homebuyers with more complex needs such as second mortgages, bridge loans, or portfolio loan programs, our experienced Columbia mortgage experts will explore all available options to craft a personalized financing solution that perfectly aligns with your circumstances and future plans.
At First Heritage Mortgage, we’re more than just lenders — we’re your partners in realizing your Columbia homeownership dreams.
