What is an Adjustable-Rate Mortgage (ARM)?
An adjustable-rate mortgage is a home loan with a variable rate and payment. ARM loans start with an initial interest rate that is typically lower than that of a comparable fixed-rate mortgage. The initial low interest rate is fixed for a period of time, after that the rate adjusts periodically. This means after the initial fixed-rate period your monthly payment could go up or down, depending on market conditions.
When should you consider an Adjustable-Rate Mortgage?
The primary advantage to an adjustable rate mortgage is that typically you'll get a lower initial rate and payment than that of a comparable fixed-rate mortgage. A lower initial rate could save you money on interest payments. You should consider an ARM loan if you:
- Are looking to buy a home and do not meet the qualification requirements for a fixed-rate mortgage (7/1 ARM9)
- Are a first-time homebuyer needing a lower payment during your first years as a home owner
- Would like to purchase a home with 0% down3
- Plan on selling or refinancing before the initial fixed-rate period is over
