Adjustable Rate Mortgage Programs

In most instances, the typical ARM program allows both home buyers and home owners an optional interest only payment option for a set period traditionally equal to the fixed period of the loan. This frees up income to use toward other financial investments and still provides the home owner with additional tax advantages.
