When you are trying to get into the renting business and don’t have enough money a mortgage may seem like a good idea, what are the points to consider when you are going to choose one?
The elements to get a mortgage are analyzed in this document, in order to get a better understanding of them.
The Amount to be Lent.
Up to 80% of the appraised value of the property can be usually granted by the banks with no additional guarantees. If you have enough savings to cover the other 20%, you will be an affordable option for the banks, if you are unable to meet this standards it is very likely that you will need higher rate mortgages or additional guarantees.
The Interest Rates for the Mortgage.
Variable, Fixed and Mixed rates are the three different rates a bank will offer you, each one has their own benefits, for example the variable rates as their name shows will vary with the time, if the mortgage rates are high you will pay more, if they are low you will pay less, the fixed rates are usually more expensive, but will give you the certainty of paying the same amount all the time, on the other hand the mixed rates are a mix of both worlds, they start as fixed (the first 3 to 5 years) and after that period they will become variable.
Amortization
A longer repayment period means paying more interest over time. Moreover, the fee you will pay every month will be lower. By contrast, in a short repayment term, you pay less interest, since the capital goes back in less time to the lender and this lowers the final cost of the mortgage. On the other hand, a short repayment term, implies a higher quota, as more capital is amortized in less time.
Other related products
Some banks offer other products that can improve the general conditions of your mortgage; these products are credit cards, insurance (multi-risk and life); do not forget to ask for the cost of each one of these products and compare them with other similar opportunities in the market because some times they add extra expenses to the package and the benefits are not easy to see.
Bank Commissions
The commission game is like any other business game, there are banks that charge more than others, that is why it is important to negotiate your commissions, in general there are 5 types of commissions: opening and study, partial redemption, cancellation, subrogation and modification, you can negotiate each one of these and even make them zero!!!, remember that most of the commissions are regulated by law (except for opening and study commissions)
