825,000 at 3.9% for 30


Nobody finances 825k for 30 years. Not that you can't do it, you just wouldn't.

You are a little older than me but my first house was 202k in 2006 as a 25 year old.

I was 26 when we bought our first house. I made less than half of what I make now but had good credit. I just didn't want to overextend us when we first got married. Found out the wife was pregnant about a month later so that worked out OK

We still don't live in a big, expensive place. I think our home value is 1.2x our annual income.

You are wrong buddy

As a CPA that has also done this myself

My favorite is using a business as collateral for a jumbo loan and then refinancing on said loan

Returns way higher than the interest rates

Your business can fail tomorrow and still be better off this route if you are actually a person that can afford such a house.


Jumbo loans basically bottomed out just a couple years ago

Easy

Maybe not in M’Boro, but about 30 minutes up the road from you it’s pretty common

$405k at 3.85% for 30. That was 5 years ago. Thinking I might re-fi into a new 15 year at these current rates.

I do make a couple extra payments a year, so it should be doable

$243k at 3.25%, locked in rate right at beginning of pandemic, could have gotten it lower, but was worried about it spiking.

Lol at everyone financing for a 30 year loan.

To answer your question $275K for 15 at 3.25%. We have thought about refinancing but we are probably going to sell our house in 2 years anyway so not worth the effort

I’d take 10,000,000 over 75 years at 3% if I could get my hands on it.
