No, but it is harder to foreclose on more expensive houses. However, 5 years is insane.

Why do you ask?

let's Bring this to the random thoughts thread.

What random thought thread? I only asked because in the thread What do you think about the economy or something like that I explained that I'm seeing an increase of stopping payment of mortgages among sellers across all home prices and income strata.

Foreclosure rate on $1M+ homes has increased significantly the last 6-months. Banks must believe their capital is significantly stronger or overseers are goading them into action.

$100K in the TIAA-CREF savings account linked here yesterday would yield $1,250/month.

$1,250x12=$15,000/year


Your math isn't quite correct here. 1.25% APR = $1250 per year = $104 per month on $100k.

1.25% is still a good yield, close to the 5yr UST but your math couldn't be more wrong
