50 Year Proposed Mortgage, A Bad Idea?

Описание: Hearing About a 50-Year Mortgage? Let’s Talk…

When I first heard about 50-year mortgages, I thought, Hmm… most people don’t stay in their homes for 30 years… much less 50.
A lower payment sounds great, until you realize the interest rate is often higher because it’s a bigger risk to the bank.nSo… why would you do it?

Some people think they’ll get the 50-year loan and pay it off like a 30-year.
Spoiler: most people don’t have that kind of discipline (and that’s okay!).
But stretching a loan that long can feel a lot like renting or an interest-only loan, you’re not really gaining traction. And we’ve seen how those interest only loans turned out.

And let’s be honest, if the average first-time buyer is 40, a 50-year mortgage means you might not see the finish line.

Bottom line: If this 50 year mortgage becomes an actual thing, know the risks. Protect your financial future. Don’t let a “lower payment” cost you more in the long run.
