You could probably get the P&I payment close to that with a fully amortized ARM - rates are in the 3's (with some lenders in the 2's).

$250k @ 3% = $1054.01/mo P&I.

That's about 85% loan-to-value, I'm not sure who is going that high anymore, even portfolio lenders.

Other than to lower payments, what is the reason you are looking for an interest only ARM?

loan amount is 250,000 or less and the appraised value is around 290,000.  The value 2 years ago was 385,000.

Some go up to 75% but I don't no anyone who goes up to 80% anymore on an interest only ARM.

You need  to find a portfolio lender in your area: small community banks and credit unions. They usually require 20% down.

Happy funding, Rudi
