ARM Mortgage Formulas
ARM Rate Calculation
- Index Rate = SOFR, Treasury yield, or other benchmark
- Margin = Fixed percentage added by lender (typically 2-3%)
Rate Caps (5/2/5 Example)
- 5 = Max 5% increase at first adjustment
- 2 = Max 2% increase per adjustment after
- 5 = Max 5% total increase over life of loan
Example: 5/1 ARM
Starting at 5% with 2% margin:
- • Fixed rate: 5% for first 5 years
- • After year 5: Adjusts annually
- • If index is 4%: New rate = 4% + 2% = 6%
- • Subject to rate caps
