Adjustable-Rate Mortgage
Does an Adjustable-Rate Mortgage make the most sense for your financial situation?
About Adjustable-Rate Options
An ARM is an Adjustable Rate Mortgage. Unlike fixed-rate mortgages that have an interest rate that remains the same for the life of the loan, the interest rate on an ARM will change periodically. The initial interest rate of an ARM is lower then that of a fixed-rate mortgage, consequently, an ARM maybe a good option to consider if you plan to own your home for only a few years; you expect an increase in future earnings; or, the prevailing interest rate for a fixed mortgage is too high.

Why an adjustable-rate?
Most homeowners get into adjustable-rate mortgages for the lower initial payment, and then usually refinance the loan when the fixed period ends. At that time, the interest rate becomes variable, or adjustable, and the homeowner may refinance into another adjustable-rate mortgage, a fixed-rate mortgage, or sell the home.
