4.625% Fixed 30 or 3.25% Var
I'm working with two banks right now to try and finance a four-plex. Both are 20% down and amortized on a 30 year schedule. One is a fixed 30 year mortgage at 4.625% and the other is variable at 3.25% for the first 5 years. After that it can only go up or down by 2% every five years maxing out at 11.25% in 20 years worst case scenario. We are purchasing for 43k and I'd like to see it paid off within the first 5 years. We are talking $28 a month difference and over 5 years thats $1680. What are the pros and cons of either and which should I go with?
