They become prohibitively expensive after 5 years.. you can refinance and when you do it, you will start paying the interest again on the loan amount.. Also, don’t take advice from people who never owned a home.. You can refinance it ... He should get an opportunity to do so based on past. Quote

I didn’t say he cannot refinance.. I said refinancing a loan is not a good idea after 5 years as you pay so much of interest and you have to restart paying the interest when you refinance… it is basically a fresh loan of the outstanding loan balance..

I think you are missing a valid scenario — with current mortgage rates there is 99% chance that anyone paying higher interest will refinance to get a better rate as soon as its time — this again depends if the mortgage rate comes down after the introductory period — so in that case end of the day refinance will happen period — Quote

That's right, if it's after full 5 years. Another option is to refinance to 20 years. Quote

It all depends on the difference in the rates between ARM and Fixed? My opinion, makes more sense to go with ARM when there is at least 1-1.25% difference. Of course, u have to think abt closing costs and then refinance costs… 1 Quote

I doubt that will be the case in the coming 5-7 years.. look at the total cost of the loan (principal and interest over the loan period and closing costs) and not just the interest rate number… Quote
