Our 3-Year and 5-Year ARMs offer your clients the advantage of a fixed rate loan with a lower rate for an intermediate period of time. This can be particularly attractive to the borrower who plans to remain in the home for a limited time. These loans begin at a lower interest rate, which is fixed for 3 or 5 years and is then adjusted annually based on the 1-year LIBOR index and a 2.75% margin. The client benefits from a lower interest rate than a fixed rate loan. In addition, both the 3-Year and 5-Year ARMs offer your clients an interest only payment feature.

The 3 and 5-Year ARMs are recommended for borrowers who:

Plan to own their home 3-5 years.
May be uncomfortable with a shorter term ARM; yet want the benefits of a lower rate for an intermediary period of time.
