Mortgage amount: Original or expected balance for your mortgage.
Starting interest rate: Initial annual interest rate for this mortgage.
Term in years: The number of years over which you will repay this loan. The most common mortgage terms are 15 years and 30 years.
Interest rate cap: This is the highest interest rate allowed by your mortgage. Your actual interest rate will not be adjusted above this rate.
Expected adjustment: The amount you believe that your mortgage's interest rate will change. This amount will be added to or subtracted from your interest rate.
Months between adjustments: The number of payment periods between potential adjustments to your interest rate. The most common is 12 months, which means your payment could change at most once per year.
Starting monthly payment: Monthly principal and interest payment (PI) based on your beginning balance and starting interest rate.
Total payments: Total of all monthly payments over the full term of the mortgage. This total payment amount assumes that there are no prepayments of principal.

First Time Buyers >Preferences of Buyers

Although every purchase of a home involves a degree of compromise, the process begins with the buyer's preferences. When you are working with a real estate agent, it is important that you give your agent a clear idea which of your criteria are flexible and which items you really must have in your new home. If you prefer a specific location, for example, discuss why you want to live in that neighborhood. The agent might be able to suggest alternatives areas which offer the same amenities or convenience to your office. How important is size? Do you really need four bedrooms or would three bedrooms work, if there is a den for your home office? How much are you willing to correct with redecorating or remodeling? Are you willing to expand your price range by using an adjustable rate mortgage to increase your buying power?

The agent will ask you a lot of questions so that they can use your time most efficiently by showing you houses that meet your criterion as a buyer.
