With the ever increasing property devaluations that are going around in my area I am wondering if in fact those friends of mine that are seeking out
cheap mortgagerates are of sound minds.
With our area it is in fact a buyers market and the banks are bending over backwards to real those people in that are first time buyers. Flattering them with low rates, great deals that may or may not be true in the future.
First time mortgagors might just find their selves in trouble down the line with a graduated loan. While bankers here are saying how well the property prices are, they are leaving out the fact that many have been foreclosing on these same homeowners after raising their monthly payments.
One of the reasons that people are loosing their homes is due to loss of jobs. They did not in fact enroll in any type of
mortgage protection plan. At least with this in hand you are protected in case of an emergency and loosing a job is one such case in point.
Another point is that the property taxes has gone up and banks presented tantalizing
poor credit remortgage rates. These are to the same people that they were in fact burying a live in mortgage payment debts.
Banks are a business. They are in business to make money plain and simple. If the general public would research more carefully what they are offering maybe just maybe they would not jump at these offers creating a loss in the future.
Look at the rates and all the fine print. This may save your credit and your home
