What are the advantages and disadvantages of an 80/20 home loan?
Answers:
Biggest disadvantage right very soon is you will never bring such a loan, in need lofty double digit interest rates, if your credit is lousy.
2nd disadvantage you should not really, really be buying a home unless you own at minimum 3% down.
Advantage is that you will not reimburse PMI on the loan.
Advantage is obviously, no money down and no PMI. Disadvantage is they are getting harder and harder to get near the credit crunch and the soft open market most lenders are not even doing them anymore or making them one and only to resourcefully established and capably qualified borrowers.
Advantage would be you could bring back your home for no money down and you would not hold ot settle PMI. You should know how to refi when your home increases in effectiveness and consolodate your two loans into one.
Disadvantage would be if the housing open market decline. Your efficacy will not increase, but to some extent halt making impossible to refi the loan into one. The second loan also have a soaring interest rate. You may be better rotten paying the PMI if your rack up is dignified satisfactory.
Advantage is you avoid PMI.
Disadvantage is the better interest rates on the second loan.
BIG DISADVANTAGE, no lender that I know of is doing these loans anymore.
