Yup, that’s right. You always have the option of paying cash for your house instead.
so now you know why the mortgage business is so lucrative and also why mortgage companies who have a lot of foreclosures really aren’t loosing all that much money.
originally it was assumed that the new owner would realize equity over time–but how the hell much equity will you realize in 30 years at this interest rate?
we haven’t even talked about property taxes yet!
You are missing a couple of things. For one, there is no way around paying interest on a loan, but there are ways to minimize the interest (shorter loan terms). Also interest is tax deductible! So all that interest that you pay the lender is actually saving the number of dollars you send to uncle Sam each year. In a sense, depending upon your tax bracket, 20-35% of those dollars you spend on interest remain in your pocket at tax time.
Yeah that sounds about right. You want to figure that every payment that you make adds a dollar to the principal….the rest is interest.
So yeah if you pay over 30 years then yeah. But if you get a loan without a prepamet penalty and pay ONE whole extra payment a YEAR you can usually knock that down by almost half.
But yeah if you don’t make extra payments you pay out the nose for a home.
