Adjustable Rate Mortgage

What is an Adjustable Rate mortgage?

It’s a type of mortgage in which the interest rate paid on the outstanding balance varies according to a specific benchmark. The initial interest rate is normally fixed for a period of time after which it is reset periodically, often every month.

Who should get an Adjustable Rate mortgage?

It’s typically available to anyone who wants the lowest rate currently available. ARMs transfer part of the usual “interest rate risk” carried by all home loans, from the lender to the borrower since the borrower is taking advantage of lower initial payments.

What are the pros and cons of Adjustable Rate mortgages?
