Can recent problems with bad credit affect the interest rate on my adjustable rate mortgage?
The initial interest rate was based on the pervailing margin and index of your ARM (Adjustable Rate Mortgage) at the time of the origination of the loan. The terms will only changed based on what the margin and index does after and is not effected by any credit issues AFTER you closed on the transaction. Now, if you have to refinance or reconfigure the loan with the lender, you may have an issue because they will have to repull credit. Good luck!
