Balloon Mortgages

June 7th, 2009

The balloon mortgage, a product recently offered by banks, but that surely comes as an alternative to be evaluated when you turn on a mortgage.

The balloon mortgage is a mortgage in which the semi-annual or annual installments are wholly made from the payment of interest expense. The capital is instead subsequently returned to longer maturities, for example after 5 or 10 years, or through periodic payments of varying amounts.

It convenient for those without a fixed income you can rely on, such as self-employed, who need to be able to handle the loan without being immediately affected by the burden of repayment of capital in installments. In fact, unlike employees, is useful both to businesses that employed persons who have a variable income and a revenue structure less regular and more concentrated in certain periods (including multi-year), so it may be a valid proposal in the light of and in connection the monetary income and expenditure. So who receives the balloon mortgage can freely administer the return on capital in relation to their income.

Some advantages of balloon mortgages

  • It convenient for those who manage capital and has convenience to demobilize investment only in certain fixed dates (and not month after month as in traditional calculator)
  • Failure to return on equity in regular installments allows those who have received the loan to invest the capital and receive interest income by 100% of capital.
  • Since we made only by the payment of interest on the mortgage rate balloon is less costly in the short term than a traditional mortgage.
  • Other clauses provide for the loan can be paid off well in advance through the return of capital. Penalties extinction of the loan is lower than conventional loans.
  • The balloon mortgage is most beneficial to the customer for the bank.

Some disadvantages of balloon mortgages

  • The calculation of depreciation is less standardized. Banks are forced to manage mortgages with balloon dedicated procedures, other than the traditional auto loans.
  • Who gets the mortgage balloon must have administrative capacity and management of their savings evolved to ensure the return of capital to fixed dates.
  • The risks are greatest for the bank, such as the non-repayment of capital that is greater than traditional mortgages.

Mortgage Loan Annuities with Mutuionline

May 27th, 2009

According to careful research I found the product offered by Mutuionline, called mortgage loan annuity to those over 65 years.

It is nothing but a long-term financing secured by a first mortgage (i.e. no other formalities need to be on the house) on home ownership, reserved for individuals who have reached 65 years of age.

The amount of funding goes from 32.000 to 350,000 Euros, and depends. Age of the applicant and the value of the house given as security: the greater the value of the dwelling and the higher the age, the greater will be the amount that you get with the mortgage loan annuity.

The funding is designed so that it never made any payment: the mortgage loan annuity does not require reimbursement of any kind, in fact, not even for the interest during the life of its holder. Any interest and annual expenses are added annually, and the total debt will be repaid at once by the heirs.

With the loan annuity, you can:

  • help their children buy a house;
  • off the thought of monthly installments tied to mortgages or financing;
  • Live peacefully integrating retirement.

In the case of spouses or partners to finance contestant and will be refunded only after the disappearance of the longest of the two contestant. If the heirs are interested in maintaining ownership of the house will pay back what is due to cover the loan and leave the house by the mortgage, or may sell the home and repay the loan with the proceeds of the sale.
Home ownership remains for his family.

If, during the years the property value continues to increase (as happened in the past), you can still count on a substantial figure of money even after they have repaid the loan. In the event that the debt would go up rather than the value of the house, the amount due by the heirs will not engage in ‘but in no case be higher than the realizable value of the dwelling.
