FAQ
Your payment steps up significantly. You'll switch from paying interest only to fully amortizing the remaining balance.
Yes. Many borrowers refinance into a fixed-rate loan before recast to lock in a new rate.
No. Down payments are similar to conventional loans. The difference is in how you pay interest and principal over time.
It works if your income is rising and you plan to refinance or sell before recast. A 30-year fixed is safer if your income is stable.
Terms vary by lender and loan program. Common periods are 5, 7, or 10 years, then you fully amortize over the remaining years.
