A 50 Year Mortgage ! Hmmm …

J.K. Financial, Inc. 50 Year Mortgage

Talk over the weekend as a stimulus to the housing market, in particular the Residential sector gave rise to possible 50 Year Mortgage option.

With a normal shaped yield curve (not inverted), the farther in length/term the higher the rate, as explained by the chart below a 2 year bottom/blue line, 10 year orange/middle and 30 year top/purple line – the longer the term the higher the yield therefore the higher the rate on a Mortgage.

Line graph showing the yields of different U.S. government bonds: 10-Year, 30-Year, and 2-Year over time, with values indicated in percentages.

Rather than bore you with the calculations, a 50 Year Mortgage option at this time, would give the holder very little relief in cost on a monthly payment base, much greater long term interest cost, and of course a much longer term.

Not a good idea at this time!

We are always open to changes in the situation, but would caution, 50 Years is a long time no matter the possible changes/incentives, but an inverted yield curve could make this interesting!

Have a Great “50 Year Mortgage Analysis” Day!
