What is an Adjustable-Rate Mortgage (ARM)?
An Adjustable-Rate Mortgage (ARM) is a loan that offers a lower initial interest rate than most fixed rate mortgages for a set period. After the initial period, the interest rate can change, based on an index and a margin, and the monthly payment could go up or down accordingly.
DuGood offers a 5/1 ARM which means the interest rate is fixed for the first five years and will be subject to change annually for the remaining term of the loan.

When should I refinance my mortgage?
- When you want to shorten the term of your loan
- When interest rates are at least 2% lower than your current rate.
- When your home's value has gone up and you would you like to pay off high-interest debt like credit cards or make a large purchase.
