Email cash flow option arm questions An issue for many homeowners is in managing income and expenses, or "cash flow". Income varies and unplanned expenses come up. For many, our mortgage payment is our largest expense, and the least flexible. The Cash Flow Option ARM was designed to give you control over your mortgage payment. Choose one of four payment options each month based on your cash flow needs. Cash Flow Option Arm Minimum Payment A payment that is set for 12 or 60 months at a reduced rate. The minimum payment rate for the 12 month option is 1.00% and the 60 month option is 1.90%. This option maximizes cash flow and may also defer payment of interest allowing flexibility in managing your tax deductions. This minimum payment can not increase by more than 7.5% each year. Read about the important tax considerations of a cash flow option arm. If you have concerns over deferred interest, read about the small amount of appreciation required to offset it. Interest Only Payment Defer paying principal and improve your monthly cash flow. This option is not available if the interest only payment is less than the minimum payment.
