Looking for an interest rate lower than a typical fixed-rate mortgage?

Get that lower rate that you're after with a Star One adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM).

Choose a fixed-rate period to start—three, five, seven or ten years. After that period, your rate will increase or decrease each year until the end of your thirty-year loan.

Flexibility: If rates drop in the future, just use our Mortgage Rate Modification program to lower your rate or lock into a fixed-rate mortgage—for a simple fee.

Added bonus: We don't charge loan origination fees—so you'll save thousands when you buy a home in a high-cost area.

Pro tip: With our special 5/5 ARM, your interest rate will only change every five years after the initial five-year fixed-rate period. With our lowest starting rate—5.750%Rate (6.383%APR[1] )—this may be the right mortgage loan for you.
