ARM's come in different types, typically 3,5,7, 10 year. The shorter the term, the lower the interest rate. The rate you get is fixed for the term of the arm, thus a 5 year ARM gives you a fixed rate for 5 years. At the end of the 5th year your rate could go up or down depending on the current market rate.

They typically go up a point a year but most generally they are not good if you are going to be staying in your home a long time.
