Do you move frequently for work? Are you planning on starting a family in the next couple of years, and know that you will need to move to a larger house? An adjustable rate mortgage could be an excellent way for you to save money on your monthly mortgage payments.
According to Freddie Mac’s Primary Mortgage Market Survey, mortgage rates set record lows last for the second straight week last week. Continuing fears of a double dip recession in the United States and instability in the European banking community continue to drive interest rates lower and lower.
Adjustable rate mortgages are not for everybody, but for certain homeowners they could offer significant savings over fixed rate mortgages. For a period of time, the mortgage rate on an ARM is fixed (for 1, 3, 5, 7, or 10 years depending upon what type of ARM you choose). After that period of time, the rate will adjust based upon market conditions. If you know that you will need to move (or refinance your mortgage) before the fixed rate expires, you can realize enormous savings.
