If you’re considering an adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM), it’s important to understand how they work and what the risks are. Unlike a fixed-rate mortgage, where the interest rate stays the same for the life of the loan, an ARM has an interest rate that changes periodically. The initial interest rate is usually lower than a fixed-rate mortgage, but it can go up – sometimes by a lot – eventually. There are a number of things to consider before you decide whether an ARM makes sense for you. ...

Canada’s largest bank said about 80,000 of its variable-rate mortgage clients will reach their trigger point with the next “couple of” Bank of Canada rate hikes. That’s the point where borrowers’ monthly payments are only covering interest payments and no longer paying down any principle. “We have gone through that analysis over the last couple of months [and] we have about 80,000 mortgages that…we expect with the next couple of rate hikes, we will reach that point,” said Neil M...

Homebuyers, buckle up! Lately, mortgage interest rates have been shooting up—and then falling back down—at a whiplash pace. Last month, rates surged, with some mortgage trackers reporting they briefly blew past 6%, before tumbling back down into the low- to mid-5% range. That’s a huge departure from a year ago, when rates hovered around 3% and there were no big swings from one week to the next. Rates averaged 5.51% for 30-year fixed-rate loans in the week ending July 14, according to Fredd...
