About Adjustable-Rate Mortgages
An Adjustable-Rate Mortgage provides lower initial EMIs compared to fixed-rate loans. The interest rate is stable for an introductory period, then adjusts periodically based on benchmark financial indexes. This mortgage suits buyers expecting income growth or planning to refinance or sell before rate resets.
Benefits
- Lower initial payments
- Can save money if rates fall
- Good for short-term ownership
Risks
ARM rates may rise sharply, increasing monthly payments. Borrowers should evaluate caps, adjustment frequency, and future financial readiness before choosing an ARM loan.
