Unique Loans
*ARM Feature:
Treasury Indexed ARM Interest and payment adjustment occurs every 12 months after initial fixed rate periodRate caps = 2% at first adjustment, 2% per annual adjustment there after and 5% over the lifetime of the loan
Index = 1yr. t-bill
Margin = 2.75%
For All Adjustable Rate Mortgage
For example, on a 5/1 1-Year Constant Maturity Treasury Index (1-Year CMT) Adjustable Rate Mortgage (ARM), the interest rate and payment are fixed for the first five years of the loan. The interest rate and payment may adjust every twelve months thereafter and may not increase or decrease more than 2.0% at each twelve-month adjustment. The interest rate cannot increase more than 5% over the term of the loan. For a 5/1 1-Year CMT ARM for $200,000 with a 30-year term and an initial interest rate of 5.698% APR, repayment will consist of 60 monthly payments of $1,119.95. If the interest rate were to increase by the maximum five percentage points to 10.698% APR, then the monthly payment would increase from $1,119.95 to a maximum of $1,726.62 in the fifth year. Other rates and terms are available. The terms used in this example are for illustrative purposes only and the actual terms you receive may be different depending on your individual circumstances.
