Renegotiable Rate MortgageA real property loan calling for an adjustment in the interest rate at a given time. Example: A loan with a 15 year amortization is adjusted to current interest rates after 2 years. The lender agrees to make the adjusted loan at the new rate as long as the old loan is not in default. The Federal Reserve Board allows the original loan to be treated either as a balloon payment loan or a variable rate loan. However, points must be figured into the A.P.R. based on the time or renegotiation (2 years rather than 15).Renegotiable Rate Mortgage Similar MatchesRenegotiable rateRenegotiable rateA type of variable rate involving a renewable short-term "balloon" note.
