How It Works
How Adjustable Rate Mortgages Work
Your interest rate is fixed for a specific period. After that, your interest rate may change annually depending on the market. That means your monthly mortgage payment can go up or down each year. Your rate won’t increase more than 5% of the original rate throughout the life of the loan.
A popular option is a 5/1 Adjustable Rate Mortgage, or ARM where your interest rate is fixed for 5 years.
The Different Types of Adjustable Rate Mortgages
- FHA offers an ARM option
- Qualified veterans, service members and spouses can eligible for an ARM with a VA loan
