Converting Your ARM to a Fixed Rate

My rates have gone too high. What are my options if I want to get out of my Adjustable Rate Mortgage.?


Talk to a mortgage lender about a refinance. You can pay off the ARM and get a fixed rate loan, depending on your qualifications. This could be with the same lender, or a different one.

Now may be a good time as Freddie Mac reported on August 9, 2007, that the average interest rate on 30-year, fixed-rate mortgage dropped to 6.59 percent this week from 6.68 percent last week. Certainly your qualifications and geographic area may influence what you are able to get, but it costs only time to ask.
