I would just nut up and donate plasma for the extra 140 a month in payments to be done in 30 than 40 years. But if a 140 dollars a month difference between 30 and 40 for 315k house, you shouldn’t be in the market for a mortgage.
But on this scenario, with the same interest rate, you can literally just pay the same amount as the 30-year and it would be paid off in exactly 360 months.

The reality is that we keep accepting higher and higher home values. Values will only continue in what people are willing to pay. Until people stop bragging off of home value to keep up with the Jones’ none of this will change.

40 years is basically just renting from the bank.

If you can borrow at negative rates, how bad can it be?

Which will lead to another bubble and help keep prices artificially high.

I get that the interest is front loaded, but what percentage of home loans exist through term without modification or the property being sold?

US Govt should have issued 40 yr - 100 yr notes when rates were so low.

People think this is going to help get buyers into homes, which it will initially, but I'd imagine builders and sellers will just be able to hike the price of the homes to adapt
