Hi,
A long term loan is termed as mortgage and a long term mortgage is that type which extends more than the life of a typical loan.
Generally a conventional mortgage has a period of 15-30 years whereas in case of a long term mortgage the time period is 40-50 years.
Though most lenders prefer short term mortgages, but there are some lenders who offer long term mortgages provided either the property is in excellent condition or the borrower is having very good record as a customer.
It is particularly beneficial to young persons going for a first time home purchase as the monthly payment is low because of the long period.
Hope this information will help you.
God bless you.

Hi,
It is advisable to go for a long term mortgage when the rates are low in the market. If the rates are high then you should opt for a shorter term.
Feel free to ask if you have any more doubts.
God bless you.
