Help me? Leah is purchasing a condominium and is financing $515,000 with a 20-year 5/1 ARM at 5.25% with a 1/12 cap structure. What will her payments be at the beginning of year 6?

No I am all new to this, so stuck /: I have a few I'm stuck on

ARMs are tricky and a pain because the interest rate goes up every year (after the 5 year mark) in this case

Lol

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

but luckily there are calculators that simplify things greatly like this one http://www.calcxml.com/calculators/adjustable-rate-mortgage-calculator

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
