Lower initial rates with flexible options
An adjustable-rate mortgage offers a low introductory rate, followed by periodic adjustments based on market conditions. It’s a smart solution for buyers planning to move or refinance within a few years.
Our mortgage experts will guide you in understanding how an ARM works - and if it’s right for your goals.
Highlights:
- Lower initial interest rate than fixed-rate loans
- Ideal for short-term homeownership or expected income growth
- Various term options (e.g., 5/1 ARM, 7/1 ARM)
