100% Mortgages - Are They Good Or Bad?

With the sudden public interest in 100% mortgages, Simon talks about whether they are good or bad as a product, as well as for whom they may prove most beneficial. KEY TAKEAWAYS Lenders like buyers to have some skin in the game, and this is why they ask for a deposit, but coming up with such a large sum can prove problematic for many people. Because interest rates are so high, even if people can get a 100% mortgage, the monthly repayments are working out to be more expensive. You haven't lost money on a property that's declined in value since the purchase, unless you sell it when the value is lower. If you can hold the property, then time has shown that property value always rises. BEST MOMENTS '100% mortgages help with the problem of deposits' 'The higher the loan-to-value mortgage, the higher the interest rate you are charged' 'The more money you put in, the lower the interest rate you will pay' VALUABLE RESOURCES To attend your first pin meeting as Simon's guest visit http://www.pinmeeting.co.uk/, find your local meeting, and at the bottom of the page where you normally pay £20, click on where is says "pay with a voucher code" and use this code: PODCAST.
