Mortgages

You may get started with your mortgage application in a number of ways:

• By phone: 844.RoyalPax Capital Bank.MTG info@royalpax.com
• In person: visit one of our locations

The most common mortgages are fixed- and adjustable-rate mortgages (ARM).³

Fixed-rate mortgages offer the stability of regular monthly payments over a given length of time, or term. Many people feel these are ideal because they make it easy to budget family finances and there is no risk of the rate increasing.

Adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) programs offer you the flexibility of an initial interest rate and payment lower than a standard fixed-rate mortgage. ARM mortgages may also be a great option for home buyers who do not plan to stay in their current home for a long period of time.

An escrow account is one that is established to hold separate funds for the purpose of paying bills such as homeowner's insurance and property taxes.

RoyalPax Capital Bank collects the funds to be deposited into the account each month from your monthly payment and then pays the bill for you when it comes due. This eliminates the need for you having to come up with the additional funds when they are due. By taking the annual amounts charged for homeowner's insurance, property taxes and other annually paid items and dividing them by 12, the escrow department establishes a payment amount that is added to your monthly principal and interest payment. This spreads the cost of those items over 12 months, making it easier to budget those expenses.

For example, if your homeowner's insurance annual premium (charge) is $300, breaking that cost down over 12 months means that $25 will be added to your monthly payment amount to cover the cost.

When the bill comes due, RoyalPax Capital Bank has the funds available to pay it for you, since you've already placed the money in your escrow account through your monthly payment.

Your annual escrow statement explains how the monthly escrow portion of your payment was calculated, and provides estimates of your annual expected costs. You will receive an escrow statement each year if you have an escrow account.

Our complimentary mortgage calculator can help you with this question.

If you have homeowner’s insurance collected as part of your escrow account, RoyalPax Capital Bank will receive your insurance invoice and disburse the appropriate funds from your escrow account. Your monthly billing statement will display any disbursements.

Private Mortgage Insurance is provided by a private mortgage insurance company to protect lenders against loss if a borrower defaults. Private Mortgage Insurance is generally required for a loan with an initial loan to value (LTV) percentage in excess of 80%. In most cases, this will mean that you will have to pay Private Mortgage Insurance if your down payment is less than 20% of the property value or purchase price, whichever is lower.
