For many homebuyers, the current market poses affordability challenges.
Home prices remain high, and mortgage rates are well above their pandemic lows. To help your clients deal with a difficult housing market, LendSure offers a solution: 10/40 Fixed-Rate Interest-Only Loans. This innovative product uses a 40-year amortization schedule to lower monthly payments and boost the borrower’s cash flow.
Stretching the repayment term to 480 months rather than 360 months creates some clear benefits in terms of monthly payment amounts.
Here’s an illustration*:
| 30-year fixed | 10/40 IO fixed | 10/40 IO fixed with rate buydown | |
| Loan Amount | $1,000,000 | $1,000,000 | $1,000,000 |
| Financed Rate Buydown | NA | NA | $26,250 |
| Total Loan Amount | $1,000,000 | $1,000,000 | $1,026,250 |
| Rate | 7.5% | 7.875% | 6.99% |
| Monthly Payment | $6,992 | $6,562 | $5,832 |
As you can see from the example above, your borrower can save $430 a month by opting for a 10/40 Fixed-Rate IO (interest only) over a 30-year loan. With a rate buydown rolled into the loan, the monthly savings widens to $1,160.
Savvy homeowners and property investors can take advantage of this option to leverage their home’s equity and manage their monthly cash flow – all while locking in a low rate for 40 years. Another feature of these loans is that it offers further savings with an interest-only option. This out-of-the-box loan program provides homeowners with the flexibility to make low-interest-only payments or fully amortized payments without penalties.
LendSure’s program appeals to financially savvy borrowers – those who are comfortable with the concept of using debt as a financial management tool. What’s more, LendSure lets your clients further reduce their monthly payments with fully financed rate buydowns.
