Adjustable Rate Mortgage

Should You Refinance Your ARM?
You should consider the following questions in deciding to refinance an ARM:
  • Could the next Interest Rate adjustment on your existing loan increase your monthly payments significantly?
  • Will the new Interest Rate be two or three percentage Points higher than the prevailing rates being offered for either fixed rate loans or other ARMs?
  • If the current Mortgage sets a cap on your monthly payments, are those payments large enough to pay off your loan by the end of the original Term?
  • Will Refinancing to a new ARM or a fixed rate loan enable you to pay your loan in full by the end of the term?
