What is the difference between fixed-rate and variable-rate loans?
Difference between fixed-rate and variable-rate loans:
Fixed-rate loans have a constant interest rate throughout the loan term, providing predictable monthly payments. Variable-rate loans, also known as adjustable-rate loans, have interest rates that can change periodically, typically tied to a benchmark index. Fixed-rate loans offer stability, while variable-rate loans may start with lower rates but come with the risk of higher payments if rates rise. The choice depends on your risk tolerance and market conditions
