Variable rate mortgages start with a low, fixed introductory or “teaser” rate. After the fixed interest period has expired, the interest rate becomes variable and is regularly reset. For example, the interest rate on a 5/1 ARM is fixed for five years and then reset annually. An ARM could be a good option for borrowers planning to either sell or refinance before the fixed interest period has expired. The downside to this type of loan is the potential for a sharp rise in the interest rate once it is adjusted.
