• LENDER BUY DOWN
  
  A particular form of convertible mortgage offering a discounted interest rate at the beginning of the loan that gradually increases during the first few years of the loan. It provides lower initial payments and a stable final monthly rate, but the final rate may be somewhat higher than on a standard fixed rate mortgage. See Buydown
