Choosing the annual adjustable H.E.C.M. means that the rate will change once each year. Any change in this rate must be the same change that occurred in the index it is tied to (usually the one-year Treasury rate), is limited to a 2% adjustment per year and has a 5% lifetime adjustment cap.

Choosing the monthly adjustable H.E.C.M. means that the rate will change once every month. Any change in this rate must be the same change that occurred in the index it is tied to (usually the one-year Treasury rate) and is limited to a 10% lifetime adjustment cap.
