Various options in mortgages:

Fixed-rate mortgages - The interest rate remains constant throughout the term of your loan, payments will always be the same. You lock into a specific interest rate, which will not change until the term is up. The amount you pay towards interest will be large at first, but will gradually decrease as you make payments. This option is generally favorable if the current rates are low.
