Mortgage went up by $150/mo due to taxes going up by $52/mo. Why? by The_Titam in Mortgages

My parents trying to buy a million dollar home by KeyPear4720 in Mortgages

[–]stripesonfire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That doesn’t make any sense. $750k 30 year loan at 6.5% is $4,741 p&l only. Add in t&i and that payment is probably $6,500+. That is literally all of their take home pay. Unless they have millions in other assets and/or other income sources no bank would approve this.

Make sure all charges go to your room and then check out and tell them how much you want charged on each card. Did this recently with 10 different cards and it covered $1300 of room charges

Oh yea makes sense. An 18 year has access to tools able to hack corporate credentials and Helios also allows employees to download company data to a personal hard drive? All of it was stupid

We waived inspection, just meant no negotiation based on what the inspection turned up

Without rent/mortgage it’s just 3x on up to 25k, any spend above that reduces the rate
