Mortgage Rates Advantages The question, "Should I get a fixed rate or an ARM?" has puzzled every home buyer who has shopped for a loan.The ARM, of course, is an adjustable-rate mortgage whose interest rate can go up or down. By contrast, a fixed-rate loan locks in your rate for the life of your loan -- there's no need to guess as to where the rate will be next year or in 15 or 30 years. At first glance, an ARM looks like a heckuva good deal next to a fixed rate. The average ARM rate nationwide is usually less than the average fixed-rate. So far that looks like a no-brainer, right? The gamble But there's a gamble involved, and ARM buyers can get burned as a result. With an ARM, your payments are lower for the first three or four years, and will stay low -- provided interest rates in general don't skyrocket. If they do, the lender typically will adjust your ARM rate upward by a maximum of 2 percentage points a year, and a max of 6 percent over the entire loan period. An ARM that starts out at, say, 5.75 percent can increase to 7.75 percent in the second year, to 9.75 percent in the third year, and to 11.75 percent in the fourth year. Over that period your monthly payment would shoot up from $581 to $1,000. On the other hand, when most interest rates are in a decline, such as during a recession, that tends to keep ARM rates low.

Florida Factoids Florida is known as the sunshine state, for both it's mild climate and world-reknowed beaches. It's the fourth most populous state in the USA, after California, New York and Texas, and a major attraction and real estate destination for both young and old. Florida was first seen by the Spanish explorer Ponce de Leon on Palm Sunday on April 2, 1513 - he then named the "Pascua de Florida," meaning "Feast of Flowers" and claimed it for Spain. Later, Florida would be held at different times by Spain and England until Spain finally sold it to the United States in 1819. The rich Spanish history is still woven into the fabric of Floridian society.
