  • Word on the street is zero % down mortgages are making a comeback. While this loan option may seem like a life raft to those buyers who are struggling to buy a home, experts are warning that these loans could lead to another 2008 housing crash and bring on a wave of foreclosures. I’m going to explain what this zero percent down loan is all about, share the experts opinions on it and share with you alternative loans or programs you should consider.

    In the USA, individuals living in cars due to partial homelessness result from a complex interplay of factors. High housing costs relative to income, stagnant wages, and income inequality drive this issue. Job loss, weak social support, medical expenses, evictions, and lack of affordable housing also contribute, while systemic problems and inadequate policies further perpetuate the phenomenon.

      Considering the present situation, diversifying by shifting investments from real estate to financial markets or gold is recommended, despite potential future home price drops. Given prevailing mortgage rates and economic uncertainty, this move is prudent, particularly due to stricter mortgage regulations. Seeking advice from a knowledgeable independent financial advisor is advisable for those seeking guidance.

      I agree, that's the more reason I prefer my day to day investment decisions being guided by an advisor, seeing that their entire skillset is built around going long and short at the same time both employing risk for its asymmetrical upside and laying off risk as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns, coupled with the exclusive information/analysis they have, it's near impossible to not out-perform, been using my advisor for over 2years+ and I've netted over 2.8million.

      Historically speaking, interest rates are still relatively low. They're about 7% or so. When I bought my first house in 1995, my interest rate was 8.5%. The difference is in the price of homes now. I paid about 105k for a 1,300 sf house in 1995. Now it would be close to 400k.

    Our current home was on the market in 2005 for $269,000, which for the small town we live in in So Cal and the horrible condition of the house, was a ridiculous price. We looked at it, but could not afford that much money for a house in so much need of repair. Someone else bought it. They did a few things to it but not a lot. Fast forward to 2011. They got divorced, moved out of state and defaulted on the house. We picked it up for $78,000. Yes, we have put a lot of money into it as there were problems we didn't know about, but we had it valued last Dec and it came in at a little over $500,000 and we aren't quite done remodeling it yet. Now we have the problem of wanting to move to Prescott AZ with our daughter, however, homes there are worse than here in CA. So, I guess we will wait and see what happens to the market and maybe we will be looking for another foreclosure if things go south again.

    The banks and the Fed are so out of touch with what homebuyers need. The down payment isn’t the issue, it the fact that housing prices have inflated by 30% since the pandemic and people’s wages are no where near in line to keep pace with that. Wich begs the question, if no one can afford to buy a home in the northeast, then who is buying up all the properties and surprising the inventory?

    I think, no matter what the conditions, 0% down is ALWAYS risky. If you don't have the discipline or the means to save at least a decent chunk towards a down payment, then you're not ready to buy a house. That's before you even consider the maintenance that you (as the owner) are now responsible for. Financial maturity and the ability to follow a budget are key. If you can't do that, you're headed for trouble.

      100%. You need to be able to save before buying a home. I’m interested in these programs solely for help to get to 20% down or at least closer if it works that way, but I’ve saved way more than that in investments. Just a little low on cash due to that (currently I enough cash for 10% down), but I’m not worried about my discipline to save.

But over time the value of houses increase and people pay down their loans so coming up with $15k at the time of sale shouldn't be hard. Problems will occur if people want to sell their house in a down market soon after buying it. But there shouldn't be a reward for that. The upside is young people can get into a house. As long as they stick within their means it is a win.

    Zero down is fine if you understand some of the restrictions that could happen. I wouldn't recommend zero down right now, due to over-value of homes and the instability of the mortgage rates. If you put zero down and your home value drops significantly over the next few years; you are going to be considered an underwater mortgage. You owe more than the value of the home; equals to no equity. Which restricts you from being able to refinance if the rates drop. This becomes even more critical if you didn't use a fixed loan, the rates adjusted (increased) after 1-3 years. You are not going to be able to refinance. By putting 20% down, gives you some equity and that buffer.

    200k/year is still not affordable to buy a house now in Bay Area because most houses are from $1.5 M to $2M. Too risky if lose the job or lose business. Most people can afford to live houses in Bay because they bought houses for a long time ago.

    I refinanced my house in 2022 and now have equity, owning about 70% of my homes value. But, now I find out that if you finance via FHA then PMI NEVER COMES OFF!! (Sorry, not yelling just making a point) I wish I had known this before I refinanced with Mutual of Omaha. Do you know if there is anything I can do? It seems so unfair!!

    for the financially undisciplined this is a trap, for someone who is financially discipled but cash short, it's a massive lifeline. if the lender has real underwriting, it's a good product, if they are giving it out like candy, then it's a systemic risk. the one group that will not be happy is all those mortgage brokers who aren't offering a similar product. is it financially astute products, the second trust (down payment assistance) being non interest bearing is a huge boon.

    It does sound risky, but I would think the lenders, having the benefit of the experience of 2008, can take steps to mitigate the risk. That said, I certainly disagree with the approach, as a “homeowner” should have some equity in the property. I think the ones taking the biggest risk are the buyers, not the lenders. Sounds like a recipe for future indentured servitude.

    There suppose to be regulations to prevent this. So I don't think this will happen with regular mortgage lenders. No money down would be high risk so interest rate would be high.

    The good news is we're having an economic recovery vs. 2008 when it was a recession.
