Looking for a
way to afford more home for less money? Your answer may be an interest
only mortgage loan. The way an interest-only mortgage loan works is simple.
For a set period, typically, 1 month, 6 months, 1, 3, 5, 7, 10 or 15 years,
you pay only the interest portion of your monthly payment. Although you
are not paying on your principal during this time period, in a typical
mortgage during the early years most of the payment goes towards interest
anyway. This interest only option frees up for other purposes the amount
that would normally go toward paying off the principal.
At the end of
the interest only period your mortgage loan reverts back to paying principal
and interest and is amortized over the remaining years. For example, if
you have a 5 year interest only ARM, then after 5 years your loan would
revert to paying principal and interest and would be amortized over the
remaining 25 years at the current indexed rate. 40 year mortgage loans
are also becoming very popular. There are now lenders offering an interest
only mortgage loan which is interest only for the first 10 years and then
reamortized over the remaining 30 years. This makes the ballooning to
principal and interest payments less painful, since your loan turns into
a 30 year term.
***Interest only loans come in the forms of ARMS, option
arm mortgages such as the COFI loan, MTA loan, CODI loan, COSI loan and
Libor loan, monthly arms and even FIXED 30 year loans. If you qualify,
even subprime (problem credit) loans can come interest only. Please ask
us about the options.

ADVANTAGES
TO INTEREST ONLY MORTGAGE LOANS:
1) Although you
won't be building equity by paying off the principal, you would be able
to buy a home that you want instead of settling for a home you can presently
afford. Most likely you would still build equity over the years as your
home increases in value.
2) Depending on
the lender, you may be qualified on the interest only payment and therefore
can qualify for more home on less income. This may enable you to do a
full doc loan instead of "stating" your income and therefore
qualify you for a higher LTV loan. (This will vary depending on the lender
and program)
3) You could take
the principal portion of your payment and use it to pay off high interest
credit cards, save for your children's education, put the additional money
towards a new car, or use that portion for other investments.
4) You could use
the principal portion for funding your retirement plan giving you that
tax advantage, and still retain the tax deductibility of a larger mortgage.
5) Most homeowners
are holding their mortgages for shorter periods. Studies show that people
either refinance or move every 1 to 7 years. Most people would rather
buy a home that suits their lifestyle and worry about building equity
through appreciation.
6) In areas where
home values are high, a homebuyer could purchase a home with an interest-only
loan and have the same payment that they would for a home of much less
value. For example, a $500,000 30 year fixed loan at 6% would have a payment
of $2997.00 per month. An interest only payment on $500,000 would be $2500
or a savings of $497.00 per month. Therefore, where a homebuyer would
typically only be able to afford home worth $420,000 on a 30 year fixed
mortgage, they can now purchase a $500,000 home at the same payment.
7) You can still
choose to make principal payments at any time and pay interest only when
you need the extra money.
8) Most monthly
payments are based on the outstanding principal balance. Therefore, if
you do decide to make a principal payment, your monthly payments could
potentially go down. This may vary from lender to lender. Check with your
loan officer about your specific program.
9) If you plan
on buying other real estate, the interest only payment keeps your debt
to income ratios lower thereby making qualifying easier.
10) Interest only
mortgage loans are available up to $10,000,000 and even for problem credit
as low as 550.
