Miracle Find
We had gone into Bankruptcy because our son was ill, Realtors with whom we'd spoken turned their backs. Not JUDI FRANICH! Because you did your homework, you found a seller who had a lot of equity and arranged for them to carry the first loan while YOU loan us the second so we could again be homeowners! Now, since we have been transferred, you netted us over $100,000. We will forever by grateful! Richard and Julie, Home Buyer & Seller Alamo, California

Real Estate Tips
Financing Your Home >Convertible ARMs
Many lenders are offering a type of Adjustable Rate Mortgage which will allow the buyers to convert their ARM to a fixed-rate mortgage without the expense of refinancing. There are several variations of this type of loan, so you should be informed about the various options before you decide on a loan.
Each lender places restrictions on when the ARM can be converted to a fixed-rate loan. Some allow a conversion after the first year of the mortgage, while others allow a change only on the rate adjustment dates. There is usually a fee for converting the mortgage, but it is much less than the cost of refinancing. The rate that you will pay after the conversion may be slightly higher than the going rate for fixed-rate mortgages. A real estate agent can provide you with a list of lenders who offer convertible ARMs, so that you can shop for the one that is best for you.
