What is the LIBOR?
LIBOR stands for London Inter-Bank Offered Rate. This is a favorable interest rate offered for U.S. dollar deposits between a group of London banks. There are several different LIBOR rates, defined by the maturity of their deposit. The LIBOR is an international index that follows world economic conditions. LIBOR-indexed ARMs offer borrowers aggressive initial rates and have proven to be competitive with popular ARM indexes like the Treasury bill.
What is the Margin?
The amount a lender adds to the index of an adjustable rate mortgage to establish an adjusted interest rate. For example, a margin of 1.50 added to a 7 percent index establishes an adjusted interest rate of 8.50 percent.
What are CAPS?
A limit on the amount the interest rate on an adjustable rate mortgage may change per year and/or the life of the loan. For example a 2/6/2 cap would mean a maximum interest increase of at the first cahnge date, 6% over the life of the loan and no more than 2% each year.
