Adjustable Rate Mortgage Loans

Most homeowners do not stay in their homes for thirty years. So why are so many home loans thirty year fixed rate mortgages? If your plans include relocating or buying a different home in the next few years, you may want to consider taking out an adjustable rate mortgage. Often the initial rate on an adjustable rate loan will be lower than a similar fixed rate mortgage allowing you to save on your monthly payments in the short term.

With an adjustable rate loan the interest rate is fixed for an initial period of time, generally 3, 5, or 7 years. After that the rate adjusts according to the current market, meaning the interest rate, and with it the mortgage payment, could go up or down. There is a limit to how much the rate can increase in the first year and any year thereafter. Carefully review the terms of an adjustable rate mortgage you are considering to be sure you are comfortable with them.
