Hybrid adjustable-rate mortgage, (ARM):ARMs have gotten a bad wrap, but there are advantages and potentially big savings. They almost always offer better rates and if you aren't moving into your forever home they make a lot of sense to save some hard earned money, rather then sending additional interest payments to the lender.
ARMs feature an initial fixed interest rate for a certain amount of time and then becomes an adjustable-rate for the remainder of the term. Standard terms are 3, 5, 7, or 10 yrs. |
Fixed-rate Mortgage:Unlike an adjustable-rate mortgage the interest rate is set at the time you take out the loan and will not change. Fixed-rate home loans can be 10 years, 15 years, 20 years or 30 years or just about anything in between, this is referred to as a flex term. 30-year fixed is the most common because it allows your mortgage payment to be the lowest, but will also cost you the most in interest over the long run.
