Many of the next series of tasks is predictable and efficient compared to the launch of a new house project where weather and heavy equipment schedules need coordinated.We will have enough lumber supplies delivered this week to get us through the holiday season and hopefully a framed house in another four weeks.I hired a high quality crew of framers for my duplex project.

I am looking for a rule-of-thumb or general advice, not specific to my situation because there are so many other variables to consider -  Given the high interest rates today, is it more favorable to consider an adjustable rate mortgage with a lower interest rate for the first 5 years and then refinance in the future with a hopefully reduced rate, or stick with a 30 year fixed rate mortgage?
