A Florida Fixed Rate Mortgage Note with Balloon Payment is a type of mortgage loan that is secured by real estate and is offered by lenders in the state of Florida. This loan is characterized by a fixed interest rate for the entirety of the loan and a large lump-sum payment due at the end of the loan's term. This large lump-sum payment is called a "balloon payment" and can be used to pay off the loan in full or partially. The two main types of Florida Fixed Rate Mortgage Note with Balloon Payment are a Standard Balloon Mortgage and a Modified Balloon Mortgage. The Standard Balloon Mortgage has a fixed interest rate for the entire term of the loan and a large balloon payment due at the end of the loan term. The Modified Balloon Mortgage is similar to a Standard Balloon Mortgage, but has a lower interest rate for the first few years and a larger balloon payment due at the end of the loan term.
