The amount of down payment and the term of the loan are the prime factors in mortgage financing. The longer the loan terms, and larger the down payments, the smaller the monthly payments will be. Rates of interest also have a significant role to play here, as rates of interest are directly proportional to the down payment. Financing for more than 80% of the home purchase price requires private mortgage insurance.
