How To Avoid Future Payment SHOCK

I have a mission of “discovery and perspective” for you …

Ask your parents if they ever thought fixed interest rates would be below 3%.

For those of you reading, under the age of about 35, you may not realize this …fixed Mortgage interest rates use to be north of 15%.  Fixed Mortgage interest rates use to be north of 15% (repeat for effect).

So, go ahead …

Ask your parents if they ever thought they would see the day Mortgage rates fell below 3%?

When I ask this question, I hear answers of, “no way”.  “Not in a million years”.  “That wouldn’t happen”.  *Slow silent head shake left to right*.

Fast forward to today … Now, I am asking myself …do I think fixed interest rates will ever be 15% or higher again?

I think, no way …that would be crazy …things would be out of whack …not in a million years.  Things are different now.  There is no way fixed interest rates could go that high (again?).

Do I honestly believe, there is absolutely NO chance of fixed Mortgage interest rates going that high again?

I think the truth is, I don’t know where rates will go over the long-term.  Just like the long term prediction of oil price futures is hard to peg down.

I would rather proactively PLAN for increasing interest rates, over the long-term vs reacting to high rates if/when they happen.

How To Protect Yourself:

  1. Acknowledge there is a threat of increasing interest rates.  If my head is in the sand and I refuse to even consider the concept of increasing interest rates, I think there is no sense in planning for them.
  2. Calculate my “future payment shock” of a worst case scenario at my future Mortgage renewal date.  Figure out what your Mortgage payment would be at a much higher interest rate in the future.  Once I have this  number, I work the differency backwards and add it into my Mortgage payment over the term of my Mortgage.
  3. Slowly absorb your future payment shock into your Mortgage payments.  As the Mortgage market changes, make adjustments to your Mortgage accordingly.

This idea is fine-and-dandy …but what about executing it?  Who is following up to manage everything?  How am I staying up to date of changes in the Mortgage market place?  Who is helping me save money AFTER my Mortgage funds?  Is the Bank branch doing this for me?

I think these are great questions to be asking when deciding WHO to place my Mortgage with!
