Do 1.25% interest rates really exist? Neg am mortgages calculate several mortgagerates. One is called the payment rate the other is the actual interest rate. Fortunately, the payment rate is capped at 7.5% of the previous payment. The true interest rate is calculated as simply the index plus the margin without periodic caps. When the interest rate resets to a higher rate with a negative amortization Adjustable Rate Mortgage (ARM), the mortgage payment doesn’t change. Instead, the additional interest expense is added to the loan balance.
