Christopher Cruz 3 Unit MF - Analysis, Offer and Financing Structure

Gary Parker More Dodd Frank - Interest Rates

If a borrower knows the rate will go up to known fixed rate, say from 6% to 8% and re-amortized say from 180 months to the remaining 144 months, they know the payment will go up and that can motivate them to refinance the loan, so loans can be manipulated somewhat to nudging a borrower in a similar manner as the more demanding balloon requirement.I'm still searching for information on restrictions to amortizations, so far I'm not finding any except that it can't be more than 360, other than the requirement of making the loan affordable.I've done a few loans with the amortization being reduced over time, this avoids usury issues.
