Mortgage Property Types

Property Types

The most common property types available in Mississippi are townhouses, single-family residences, and condominiums, but you’ll also find some manufactured homesmulti-unit properties, and cooperatives (co-ops). Let’s run through the definition of each.

Townhouses

single-family, multi-floor homes that are attached to one another. They are typically uniform in design and are part of a homeowner’s association.

Single-family residences

freestanding homes on a piece of property, or independent residential structures that act as dwellings.

Condominiums

properties that are split into distinct units in one or more buildings. These are individually owned and can either be attached or detached (condex is an alternate term for a detached condo).

Manufactured homes

homes that are built piece-by-piece off-site in factories and then transported to a lot for final assembly.

Multi-unit properties

houses that can shelter more than one family living separately. They consist of duplexes (multi-unit homes with two attached units) or apartment buildings with a maximum of four units.

Cooperatives (co-ops)

 multi-family properties where a legal entity owns the title. Residents accrue equity in the building by purchasing shares, allowing them to own a portion of the property (although their names will not be on the deed).

Refinancing

happy with lower interest rates

If you’re interested in revising or replacing the terms of an existing loan agreement, then you might want to consider refinancing. Usually, the decision to refinance is as simple as wanting to secure a lower interest rate, while another common motivation is to take advantage of the equity one has built in their property and convert some of it to cash. Some borrowers may even want to change the terms of their loan (for example, from a variable interest rate to a fixed), or to change the length of their loan agreement. Since loans with shorter terms usually have lower interest rates, the borrower can save a lot of cash by paying it off earlier and by paying less interest. Not only that, but refinancing is also a good way to bundle any outstanding debts into a single loan at a lower rate.

Reverse Mortgages

Reverse mortgages are becoming increasingly popular among eligible people who are 55 or older. Essentially, a reverse mortgage is a special type of home equity loan that is available to homeowners 55 and up who have built up considerable equity in their primary property and want to draw it out as cash either monthly, as a lump sum, or as a line of credit. It’s a form of loan, and the money received is non-taxable and will be paid back when the mortgagee dies or sells the home. To find out more about reverse mortgages, check out our online overview.
