A 7/1 ARM gets you a rate lock for longer than the average homeowner has a 30-year fixed mortgage. I'm surprised they didn't elaborate on the ARM terms.
Good question, Bobby! As Karl has eluded to here in the comments, ARMs often have a fixed-rate period at the beginning. For example, a 5-year ARM means that your rate is fixed for the first five years. Hope that helps. -Keith
Great to hear from someone working specifically with investors and not just principle home owners. Thank you for sharing and for the insight :)

I'm working on getting a 1st position HELOC right now. Here's to hoping I can get it done!
Thanks Keith! 👍
Not sure who would take an adjustable rate loan to save 1% when that will get washed away in the next couple months with the rate hikes.
Not to mention the fees to refinance
