Definitions
Current Index Rate
An indexed rate is an interest rate that is tied to a specific benchmark with rate changes based on the movement of the benchmark. Indexed interest rates are used in variable-rate credit products. The index for the 10/6 adjustable rate mortgage is the 30-day Average SOFR. Generally speaking, the current index rate plus the margin equals the rate you pay when you have an adjustable-rate mortgage. Generally the index rate plus (or minus) the margin equals the new rate that will be charged, subject to any caps.
Margin
The interest rate that is added to (or subtracted from) the index rate by the lender in order to determine adjustments to an ARM interest rate. The margin remains constant throughout the life of the mortgage and is specified in the promissory note.
Rate Adjustment Frequency
The number of months/years between scheduled interest rate changes.
First Adjusted Interest Rate Cap
The limit to how much the interest rate can increase when the first rate adjustment is made at the end of the initial fixed-rate period.
Periodic Adjusted Interest Rate Cap
The limit to how much the interest rate can increase at each periodic rate adjustment following the first rate adjustment.
Lifetime Interest Rate Cap
The limit on how much the variable interest rate can increase during the life of a loan.
Low down payment programs are also available. Rates are subject to change without notice. Variable and Adjustable rates may increase during the term of the loan. All mortgages with less than 20% down payment may require PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance). The rate and point structure will be the same as mortgages with a 20% down payment. Interest rates are subject to credit and property approval based on secondary market guidelines. Interest rates and APRs (Annual Percentage Rates) may vary depending on loan details, such as points, loan amount, your credit, and property occupancy. The rates shown are available to borrowers with a satisfactory credit history. For more information, view the Consumer Handbook on Adjustable-Rate Mortgages.
