What is an Adjustable-Rate Mortgage?
Adjustable Rate Mortgages (ARMs) begin with an introductory rate followed by an adjustment based on an index that can fluctuate with market conditions.
We offer a 5 or 7 year initial term in which your rate will remain the same. After this initial period, the rate adjusts based on a set interval. This adjustment is determined on market conditions. Apply today or schedule an appointment with a mortgage loan officer to get more details.
Adjustable-Rate Mortgage Benefits:
-
5 years at 5.64% APR* or 7 years at 5.72% APR* for initial term options
-
Initial monthly payment lower than a traditional fixed-rate mortgage
-
Easy and secure online application, plus most of the loan process can be done from the comfort of your home
Does an ARM fit your unique situation?
ARMs are a great option if you:
-
Plan on moving prior to the end of the initial term
-
Want a home with lower monthly payments
-
Just getting started in your career and anticipate higher wages in the future
ARMs contain a lot of different numbers, let's break it down!
Example: A 5/6 ARM, SOFR index, with a 2.75% margin, 2/2/5 caps.
First number (5) represents the number of years the interest rate will remain the same
Second number (6) represents how often the rate will change. In this example, the rate will adjust every 6 months after the initial term
Margin (2.75%) A margin is the percentage added to the current SOFR index number at the time of each adjustment
Caps (2/2/5)
- First number (2) represents the maximum percentage your rate can change after the initial 5 year term
- Second number (2) represents the maximum percentage of each adjustment after the mortgage adjusts the first time following the initial period of 5 years
- Third number (5) represents the maximum percentage the rate can adjust over the lifetime of the loan
SOFR Index (Secured Overnight Financing Rate) is a broad measure of the cost of borrowing cash overnight collateralized by Treasury securities. The values are published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.
