Loan

This is a loan where the lender and/or homebuilder subsidizes
the mortgage by lowering the interest rate
during the first few years of the loan. While
the payments are initially low, they will
increase when the subsidy expires. These are
sometimes used to qualify borrowers for a loan
amount that they would not otherwise qualify for
but will be able to pay in subsequent years as
their income increases.
