What a moron you are. You refused to refi at about half the interest because you "pay off your interest in the first 15 years"? No stupid, you keep paying interest for the entire term.
That’s a Biden voter for ya.What a moron you are. You refused to refi at about half the interest because you "pay off your interest in the first 15 years"? No stupid, you keep paying interest for the entire term.
And smart people refi at a lower rate and either keep the length of the loan the same, or shorten it. So you passed up paying half the interest for the next 15 years.
Yep, I'm calling you STUPID too, because you are.
A 7.5% mortgage rate is not normal, Trump proved that.30 Year Mortgage Rate in the United States averaged 7.74 percent from 1971 until 2023, reaching an all time high of 18.63 percent in October of 1981 and a record low of 2.65 percent in January of 2021. This page includes a chart with historical data for the United States 30 Year Mortgage Rate.
The extremely low rates under Trump were not normal at all, and the sign of a weak and fragile economy. Trump's economy crashed when they tried to raise rates to 2+% in 2018, then they needed to cut rates and start more QE. not good.
Biden has a strong and normal economy with a 7.5% mortgage rate that is still under the 30 year average. Trump had a weak and fragile economy that required weak low interest and mortgage rates. Trump's low interest and mortgage rates are a sign of a bad and weak economy.

Then give us averages from 1945 on, or you just doing what you think the OP is doing.
Just admit you made a mistake, and next time….come to people who better understand that a 3% mortgage is better than a 7.5% - and that you can adjust the term to stay on the same schedule. No shame in that.
Amortization, you typically pay the most interest in the first years and less later but, you still pay it.What a moron you are. You refused to refi at about half the interest because you "pay off your interest in the first 15 years"? No stupid, you keep paying interest for the entire term.

There is a set amount you owe at any given time.
I couldn't give you an average, but prior to the 70s mortgage rates were very low, on the order of 2% or less.
ill take my 2.9% mortgage interest rate over the 7% one the banker thinks are great....
The market is over valued. A result of artificially low rates. Equilibrium will return eventually.
Uh huh…
Your sense of history is short sighted. Go back to Jimmy Carter and come forward.
This thread has my vote for dumbest Dem spin thread of 2023. OMG 7.5% is so popular am I right. Dems bragging it up.
