This process took well over a year and every time we had even the slightest challenge, Erica had a solution at the ready. So there was never a reason to worry. This was our 11th purchase with Erica and we are as thrilled as ever with her service and attention to detail.

Nikki was top notch. She patiently walked me through every phase of the mortgage process. She answered every time I txt or called with questions, and i had a few bc this is our first time buying a home. Even when I didn't, she'd reach out and lmk every time there was progress with the loan. She got me a great interest rate, better than any other lender I spoke with, and even got me a great rate on my insurance. She didnt stop with just one or 2 quotes. She stopped when she found the price o was comfortable with. All in all, Nikki was such a big part in making a usually stressful and difficult process easy and fun. I had tried before and got too frustrated and gave up. Her and my agent Randall made this experience a breeze. Would 100% recommend Nikki every time! Thank you so much!!!

The entire process was incredibly smooth from start to finish. Communication was excellent, and every question I had was answered quickly and clearly. The combination of professionalism, responsiveness, and guidance made buying my home much less stressful than I expected. I always felt informed and supported throughout the process, and everything came together seamlessly. I truly appreciate all the hard work and would highly recommend Tim to anyone looking for a great lending experience.

There is NOONE like Murdock! He listens, then advises. He manages to "mange" the underwrighting process and he pushes through any/every amount of underwrighting red-tape ... he gets my clients approved in days, not weeks! I have not purchased a property recently yet he has articulately handled my personal and business, property loans with aplomb.

Dante and Julie were wonderful to work with when I was helping my VA buyers purchase their new forever home. They provided superior customer service with timely and effective communication. They were always able to find the answers to any difficult questions that we had in the loan process. They were also compassionate to the concerns of the buyer so that the buyer's experience was stress relieving rather than stressful. Lastly, they came to the closing and got to meet the buyers which provided for a better closing experience.

Frequently Asked Questions

You’ve got adjustable rate mortgage questions. We’ve got answers.

Are there limits on how much the rate can adjust?

Yes, ARMs typically have caps that limit how much the interest rate can change. These include initial adjustment caps, periodic adjustment caps, and a lifetime cap that keeps rates from exceeding a certain level over the life of the loan.

What do terms like 5/1, 7/1, and 10/1 mean?

In ARM terms, the first number represents the initial fixed-rate period in years, and the second number indicates how often the rate adjusts after that period. For example, a 5/1 ARM has a fixed rate for five years and then adjusts annually.

What is an adjustable rate mortgage (ARM), and how does it work?

An ARM starts with a fixed interest rate for an initial period (such as 5, 7, or 10 years), followed by a rate that adjusts periodically based on market conditions. This structure allows you to benefit from lower rates upfront, with adjustments occurring annually after the fixed period.
