Are adjustable rate mortgages worth considering for a Boston condo?

An adjustable rate mortgage may be worth considering. With an ARM, as it’s called, the appeal is its lower initial rate compared with a traditional fixed rate mortgage.

That rate is fixed for a set amount of time — say, seven years — and then it adjusts up, down or remains the same, depending on where interest rates are at the time.

While there’s a limit to how much the rate can change, experts recommend making sure you’d be able to afford the maximum rate if faced with it down the road. As illustrated above, a few percentage points can make a big difference in the monthly payment.
