All interest rate adjustments on ARM loans are based on the 11th District Cost of Funds (“COFI”).
The 7-year Adjustable Rate Mortgage (ARM) and 10-year ARM loan products are variable rate loans and the interest rate may increase after consummation of the loan. For the 7-year ARM, the interest rate will never increase or decrease more that 4.0% from the initial rate during the term of the loan. For the 10-year ARM, the interest rate will never increase or decrease more than 5.0% from the initial rate during the term of the loan. In addition, each change frequency (occurring each year) will not allow more than a 2.0% increase or decrease from the previous rate. APR= Annual Percentage Rate. The APR is a uniform measurement of the cost of a loan, including interest and financed costs of closing, expressed as a yearly percentage rate.
