t4texas,

Read the fine print on this "popular" loan.

rockfinancial.com

Click on the upper left "3 year Smart ARM".

"Rate is variable and subject to change. Interest-only for 3 years. After the initial 3 year, fixed-rate period the rate will adjust every 6 months. The interest-only payment on a 30-year $300,000 3-year Adjustable Rate Loan at 2.75% and 80% LTV would be $687.51 with 3.25 points due at closing. After the initial fixed-rate period, the principal and interest payment is $1432.59. The Annual Percentage Rate is 3.612%. Rates could change daily. Actual payments will vary based on individual client situation and current rates."

I think there will be many homes available cheap when that three years is up, without any increase in rates.

Good Trading
