Fixed-rate and adjustable-rate home loans differ in how the interest rate is structured over time.
A fixed-rate loan has an interest rate that does not change throughout the life of the loan. Your monthly principal and interest payments remain consistent, which can make it easier to budget over the long term. This type of loan is a popular choice for those who plan to stay in their home for many years or prefer long-term payment stability.
An adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM), on the other hand, typically starts with a rate that remains the same for an initial period. After that, the rate may adjust periodically based on market conditions. For example, a "5/1 ARM" usually has a fixed rate for the first five years, followed by yearly adjustments. This type of loan may be suitable for buyers who expect to move or refinance before the adjustment period begins.
