How Do Adjustable Rate Mortgages Work? An adjustable rate mortgage or âARMâ is a mortgage on which the interest rate can change during the life of the loan. In contrast, a fixed-rate mortgage or âFRMâ is one on which the interest rate is preset for the entire life of the mortgage. 1. Initial Rate Period:This is the period for which the initial rate holds.
All adjustable-rate mortgage programs come with a pre-set margin that does not change, and are tied to a major mortgage index such as the Libor, COFI, or MTA. Some banks and mortgage lenders will allow you to choose an index, while many rely on just one of the major indices for the majority of their loan products.
