Adjustable Rate Mortgage (ARM)
Take advantage of low intro rates.
With an Adjustable Rate Mortgage, start paying a fixed rate for three, five, seven, or ten years, then move to an adjustable rate according to what the market dictates. ARMs typically offer below-market interest payments at the outset but may increase as time goes on—making them a solid option if you plan to move or sell before your rate changes to a variable one.
- Rate stays fixed for your choice of three, five, seven or 10 years then adjusts annually after that
- Lower initial rate may mean you can afford more home for your money
- Rate is capped for added peace of mind
- Available on primary residences, second homes and investment properties
