Same thing here. My house was paid off but then I used a home equity line of credit to remodel and then got a small fixed rate loan to pay that off. Every place that I went was trying to give me an ARM for much more then I needed to pay off the home equity line of credit. I ended up with a 15 loan fixed at 4.5% for exactly what was needed to pay off the home equity line of credit. Then a few months later my bank gave me a new huge home equity line of credit that I have never used.
