ARM funds

ARM funds offer the best home loan rate (usually 2 percentage points lower than the fixed) for a limited period of time, 2, 3, 5, or 7 years. Then the best housing percentage will fluctuate according to the current housing market interest index. There are limits placed within each ARM that state just how far up or down the interest can settle at. Once the interest has settled, the loan transforms into a fixed rate loan, and the borrower must pay off the funds according to the terms, sell the property and pay it off, or refinance. Many times, a borrower will refinance with another ARM fund to ensure the lowest monthly payments possible.
