Renting Real Estate Questions and Answers

Can we use an existing string of credit even if our home have decrease contained by meaning?

Purchased a California home which has gone down surrounded by value. We get a $100,000. line of credit and own used $50K for some medical bills. Now, my husband has cancer and I want to use $50K to puchase a cheaper home and later try to sell the house we are within. Is this legal or permissive? If the house sell for less than the total amount due - will we be liable for the difference? Please serve!


Answers: It is legal. And, yes you'll be liable for the difference.
If you try to arrainge for a short Dutch auction and the mortgage company sees you simply took out 50k, they will likely not allow the short mart.

That being said, tons companies providing 2nd mortgages are now freezing credit lines contained by areas of declining merit. before you try to thieve the money out, I'd make sure it's still available. They can do this next to little or no warning.
You could be shooting yourself within the foot. If you use all the equity dash you have available, assuming it is still available, you will owe more on the home than it is worth. This will manufacture very difficult to go your home until the market responds. If you can afford to verbs to make the home reward and the increased equity line fee this may be an option. More than plausible your equity line is interest single loan and the interest rate could go up and increase the compensation even more. If go this route and you can't pedal the payments and loose the house it will be very difficult to buy another home for a long while.

If you alarm you can't continue to trademark the current home payment and added equity stripe payment you may want to supply your home now nick what ever equity you can get and apply it to a smaller number expensive home and find another way to nouns the med bills. If your credit is good use the equity to money the med bills and see if you can find a little or no money down loan for a smaller number expensive home.
If you do that, and don't have the equity contained by your home to pay bad both loans, then you won't be capable of sell your home and money off the liens.

I would also outstandingly advise you to hope the help of a licensed financial advisor.using the equity surrounded by your home was a impressively poor financial decision to pay envelope off medical bills.

The majority of states enjoy laws within place that prevent medical collections from being placed as liens against a primary residence...you also took unsecured debt, that could hold been included contained by a bankruptcy, and of late changed it to secured debt.

In all my years that I be an underwriter I NEVER saw a medical lien on a home.

If you sent each medical creditor purely $5.00 per month, they could not turn the bill over to collections.

Again, seek insist on from a qualified individual before you craft anymore decisions.

Would a 20 year mortgage at 8% or a 30 year mortgage at 6.3% be better on a $144,000 principal?




Answers: Is this a math question? If so you are in the wrong room.

Mortgages are normally set in 5 years. 30,25, 20 ect

The rate for a 30 year mortgage is exactly the same as a 20 year mortgage. Well with Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, FHA, VA. You get a break when it hits 15 years.

The rate should be exactly the same at a 20 or 30 year mortgage. It depends on how much principal you pay. If you want to ask a math question ask a math question but it makes no sense on this side.

But to answer your MATH QUESTION that isnt reality.

30 year you would pay 320,876.12 total. Of that 176,876.12 is in interest

20 year you would pay 289,074.78 total. Of that 145,074.78 is in interest.

From a math standpoint its easy. For a realistic standpoint thats difficult. The difference in payment is 313.15 per month. Maybe you cant afford that. Another thing to look at is interest is taxed deductable. Plus you can pay it off quicker if you take the 30 year loan at 6.3. You can take a 30 year loan at 6.3% and pay it off in 20 years at $1,056.

Almost 200 dollars a month cheaper, just pay that on your 30 year loan and it pays off in 20 years. Basically saving you 50K in interest.

For the math question take 1. In reality, take 2 and save yourself 50K in interest.

Take the 30 year and pay it like its a 20.

** UPDATE **

Sorry I wasnt trying to be rude. Since its not a math question take the 30 year at 6.3%. By law if you pay more then the required 30 year payment they put the rest to principal. If you take the 30 year and just pay it like it was a 20 year. You save alot. I broke down the numbers.

So lets say the following.

20 year at 8% Payment is 1204.47

30 year at 6% Payment is 891.32

Since you can pay anything you want. Take the 30 year at 6.3%.

Pay 1056.74 per month, even though your payment is 891 (they have to add the rest to principal). And your 30 year loan pays off in 20 years. Saving you 35455.20 in interest taking the 6.3 over the 8.

Take the 6.3. Any loan officer can run you an amortization schedule (well take that back not any). 6.3 30 year amortize it for 20. It will save you 35K.

To make it more simple. Let say you have a 20 year loan at the 6.3% your payment is 1056.74. Since they wont give you that deal. Take the 6.3 on 30 years. Just pay the 1056.74 instead. It pays off in 20 years and you dont take a hit on the rate.

PS both rates are extremely high. Look around.
The 20 year mortgage is going to cost you a payment of 1200 a month for 20 years than it will be paid off and you will have paid that principal plus 145,000 in interest.

The 30 year mortgage is going to cost you a pament of almost 900 a month for 30 years than it will be paid off and you will have paid principal plus 176,000 in interest.

Depends on your financial situation if you can pay 1200 comfortably, than you will have your loan paid off ten years earlier and also save about 31,000 in interest payments.
Better for who? 20yrs at 8% is better for the lender of the money. 30 yrs at 6.3% is better for the one doing the borrowing.
