What is a 10-year ARM?

A 10-year adjustable-rate mortgage, also known as a 10/6 ARM, is an adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) with an interest rate that is initially fixed for 10 years then adjusts every six months.
A 10-year ARM typically begins with a lower introductory rate than a fixed-rate loan. After the initial fixed period, the rate adjusts twice a year based on a variety of economic and financial market factors.Rate adjustments are tied to an interest rate index, which in most cases is the secured overnight financing rate (SOFR), plus a fixed margin set by the lender.

When should you consider a 10-year ARM?

A 10-year ARM makes sense if you plan to refinance your mortgage or sell your house before the introductory rate expires, or if you expect the value of your house to rise quickly.
If you choose a 10-year ARM, you’ll likely be able to qualify for a larger loan because of the lower introductory rate. But be careful, your interest rate and monthly payment will increase after the 10-year introductory period, and it can climb substantially depending on the terms of your specific loan and the broader market.

ARM glossary

  • Index: The benchmark rate that reflects overall market conditions. Most ARMs use the 30-day average SOFR, which can rise or fall over time. The index is used together with the margin to determine your adjustable interest rate. 
  • Margin: A fixed number of percentage points that the lender adds to the index to calculate the interest rate at each adjustment. The margin does not change over the life of the loan. For example, if the index rate is 3.985% and your margin is 2.75 percentage points, your interest rate would be 6.75% after rounding.
  • Rate cap: The maximum amount your loan’s interest rate can increase or decrease at the first adjustment, each time thereafter and over the life of the loan. Rate caps help protect borrowers from large, sudden payment changes.
