Thinking about adjustable vs fixed mortgages—what makes sense these days?

medicine298 · 2025-04-10T08:56:25Z

Been doing some digging on mortgages lately and I'm sorta stuck between a fixed-rate and one of those hybrid adjustable ones. Fixed feels safe, you know exactly what you're paying every month, but the hybrid adjustable could save money upfront and seems tempting if rates drop later. But then again, who can really predict interest rates? Curious what you guys think is smarter right now and why.

Yeah, those caps are a lifesaver for peace of mind. I've seen folks jump into ARMs without fully understanding the fine print... let's just say their sleep wasn't quite as restful, lol. Glad you did your homework!
