3. Proposed Consolidation Loan Scenarios

Variable-rate scenarios use current index + margin. Fixed-to-variable scenarios use the fixed rate initially and display the fully indexed reset rate separately.

Important: Variable-rate projections use the current index value and do not predict future index movements. A lower initial payment can result from a longer term or an interest-only period and may increase lifetime interest cost.
