My 5/1 arm will reset in 18 months, should I refinance home mortgage now, or wait for few more months?
- Asked By: MoneyTactics
- Category: 5/1 ARM
Current rate of ARM interest is 5.125%. Would it better to go for 6.75% mortgage refinance at no closing costs, if I am planning to live in the same house for next 7 to 10 years?

DeeDee, what does your mortgage indicate? Is there a pre-payment or other penalty? Has your homes value decreased? Do you have equity in the home.
If your home is in a declining area, your lender may require a 5 percent payment available from the equity of your home. (95 percent LTV)
I would check all your paperwork and speak to your current mortgage company. None of us know what will happen to interest rates or home values in the next 18 months.

A much lower rate with cosing costs wrapped into the loan would save you thousands in the long run. Unfortunately, I cant predict what rates will do in the future but can tell you they are the lowest Ive seen them in a few years.
