Ryan Denman 15 Year vs. 30 Year Mortgages on Rental Properties
15 June 2019 | 20 replies
No question..... 30 year fixed.... you can ALWAYS make payments like its a 15 year if you want to pay it off faster..... but it doesn't work the other way if things tighten up and making the higher payments on a 15 year gets dicey for whatever reason.....The view point of having the place paid off and now "look at my huge monthly income from it", is very misleading... yeah you aren't paying interest anymore, but you are essentially getting bigger checks each month because you are paying yourself back for all the $$ you used to pay it offWhen you had a mortgage you got a check of $500 each month...... now that you quickly paid off that 100k house, you get a check of $1000 a month..... but where do you think that "extra" $500 came from?

The property is In Atlanta and has an ARV of 210k, asking price is 60k, and repairs are 40k with rents at $1350. the terms of my lender are: 100% financing for both purchase price and rehab, for 6 month term with all closing costs and fees wrapped into the loan, 3 points (or additional 3 months for 2 more points) with no monthly payments at an 8.29% interest rate. so essentially I am paying $0 out of pocket as of right now which I am fine with because I have little to no capital saved up. now when I put in the refinance info, I input a loan of 147k (70% of ARV) and 5% interest for 30 years. that way I can pay off the first lender and have enough to repeat the process with whatever is left over plus what I will be saving. but then it shows negative $350 cashflow. what really eats up the numbers are the taxes and estimated mortgage payments at like $850 a month. are taxes and insurance not included with a mortgage?
