Important Facts about Adjustable Rate Mortgage Loans.

Whether you are buying a house or refinancing your mortgage, this information can help you decide if an adjustable rate mortgage (ARM) is right for you. ARMs can be complicated. If you do not understand how they work, you should not sign any loan contracts, and you might want to consider other loans. With an ARM, the interest rate on your loan is not fixed. Instead, it changes over time according to a formula - typically, a base interest rate (index) plus a certain percent (margin) (for example, the Prime Rate plus 3 percent). So, if the base interest rate increases, your interest rate and monthly payment will also increase.
