don’t apply for an ARM. apply for a fixed rate, if rates drop you can refinance. the type of mortgage you apply for is up to you not the lender.
Read the details of the loan, and DO NOT sign for it if you do not fully understand all the details.
Consult with a Real Estate Professional.
It’s simple.. don’t apply for one. ARM loans are ultimately YOUR decision.. not your lenders. A lender will dangle the dollar signs in people’s eyes with “your mortgage will only be $700 now” but then they won’t mention that it could be $1,700 in 2 years from now. Be careful. I think lenders have cracked down on ARM and Interest Only loans this year due to all of the foreclosures under these types of loans.. and in my opinion, they should be banned.
Just. Say. No.
If you don’t want an ARM, just ask for a fixed. You cannot be forced to sign anything. Just be sure to read everything you are provided with before you sign it.
