Senior buying a condo

I plan to buy a condo next year and I want to know which mortgage is best for me. I can handle payments for a $150k 15 year mortgage but would prefer a 30-year loan for lower monthly payments. I am 62 right now, does being a senior affect my loan approval? I‘ve heard that some lenders discriminate due to age. by bdthomas329 from Cedar Key, Florida. Oct 28th 2021 Reply

Lenders absolutely positively do NOT care about your age, as long as you are over 18, and can legally enter into a contract. Many seniors, especially once going on a fixed income, like the much smaller mandatory payment of a 30-year loan versus shorter-terms. You can always pay extra. Just reach out to a mortgage broker in your area. Stay away from the big banks, and the big online lenders. I lend for properties in WI MN IA ND SD.
