COSI home loans offer clients of Virginia Mortgage Bankers, LLC the opportunity and flexibility to strategically manage their cash flow by offering four monthly mortgage payment options. As you know, traditional home loans such as a 15, or 30 year fixed rate mortgage, offer a single payment choice that consists of principal plus interest. After your mortgage lender deducts the interest portion due, the principal is then, invested by the mortgage lender, with no benefit to you.

Whether its a current refinance home loan, your next new home purchase mortgage, or you are a first time homebuyer; With a COSI home loan you have the option to select the payment method that best suits your financial situation every month. Thus, giving you control over your home loan payments. |
COSI home loans give you the freedom to decide whether you would like to match your home loan payments to your variable or seasonal income, or whether you would like to put more money into retirement planning, investments, or college savings. In essence, a COSI home loan gives you a "Choice" over how you pay your mortgage so you can do what makes sense - for you.
-
Option One- A 15 year fully amortizing payment, which allows you to accumulate equity in your home at a faster rate. This would obviously create a quicker payoff and save a substantial amount of interest over time.
-
Option Two- A 30 year fully amortizing payment, which allows you to pay your home loan off in a 30 year timeframe as most families are accustomed to, yet take advantage of fluctuations in the market with the adjustable rate nature of the program.
-
Option Three- An interest only home loan payment which allows you to take full advantage of the potential tax savings from a 30 year home loan while investing or utilizing the principal portion for retirement planning, college planning, a debt consolidation home loan or any number of other needs that may arise.
-
Option Four - The minimum monthly payment option is currently at 1.25%. This option maximizes cash flow giving you more cash each month for other expenses. This option is great for Jumbo & Super Jumbo Home Loans, with the lowest payment available, up to $1,500,000 million loan amount and no PMI.

COSI mortgages rates are determined using a monthly adjustable rate concept to determine the actual rate of interest charged. In the above payment example we used the the Cost of Savings Index (COSI Home Loans). Other commonly used indices include 3-Month Certificates of Deposit Index (CODI Home Loans), Cost of Funds Index (COFI Home Loans) A fixed amount of percentage points (the "Margin") is added to the index which when combined with the indexed rate, established your effective interest rate and as such your monthly payment.
