Adjustable-Rate Mortgages (ARM) in District of Columbia and 3 more states

An adjustable-rate mortgage starts with a fixed interest rate for an initial period — commonly 5, 7, or 10 years — and then adjusts periodically based on market conditions. The initial ARM rate is typically lower than a comparable 30-year fixed rate.

ARMs fit borrowers who plan to sell, refinance, or pay off the loan within the initial fixed window.

Benefits of an ARM

• Lower initial rate than most fixed-rate options
• Rate caps limit how much the rate can change at each adjustment
• Smart fit for shorter ownership horizons

What to consider

• Payments can rise after the fixed period ends
• Budgeting requires understanding the caps and adjustment schedule
