Are Adjustable Rate Mortgages REALLY Too RISKY Now?

Remember “marry the house, date the rate”? 😬

That was a BET that you'd be able to refinance later.

Now ARMs are making a comeback because the spread is huge:

30-year fixed: 6.85%

5-year ARM: 5.82%

I'm not anti-ARM. My own father took one.

But the mortgage needs to fit your timeline TODAY, without depending on your prediction of tomorrow.
