"FLOAT" means you're getting an ARM - - but you need to know:how frequently is it adjustedbased upon what index (Libor, 9th District, 10yr Treasury Note).what is the annual Cap

All depends on how much risk the investor values the note at.i.e if the investor wanted a 8% return they would pay $101,154, if they wanted a 12% return they would pay $85,930.Today the 10yr treasury bond yield is at 2.44%

It is worth keeping in mind that the Fed controls the short-term rates, not the long term ones (now that they stopped buying long term treasuries and even then it was indirectly), which are much more influenced by the long-term expectations of inflation and the international flow of money (think, is there instability in Russia that causes Russians to pull out their money out of the country and invest it in the safe-heaven like US, is the unpredictable and shifting US policy going to keep the US dollar's status as the de facto world currency, etc).

If you had a cap on how much your rate could adjust for the initial adjustment, say 2%, your new rate would be limited to 7%.Mortgage interest rates are closely related to treasury bonds.
