5/1 I assume refers to an "ARM" - Adjustable rate mortgage
It means that for the first 5 years, you have a fixed rate (which is generally slightly lower than the prevailing market rate), then after that the rate resets annually.

It is a good option if you are only planning on being in the home 3-5 years.
