Fixed rate loans have their benefits. Consumers who want a monthly mortgage payment that will not change over the term their loan will like this type of mortgage. These loans are beneficial because they make it easy for consumers to budget their monthly payment. The down side of a 30 Year Fixed loan is that the consumer ends up paying more interest over the life of the loan. A 15 Year Fixed loan allows for a fixed monthly payment, as well as paying less interest.
