Are Interest Only Mortgages Risky?
Many are questioning the security of interest-only mortgages, asking whether or not they're a safe bet, or right in their circumstances. In this episode, Simon explains the best use of this important purchase method, and whether it carries a risk or not. KEY TAKEAWAYS In the future, properties will be worth far more than what you paid for it, so an option is to sell up and keep the capital growth. Once your property portfolio doubles in value, you can sell half of it and clear off the entire portfolio after paying capital gains tax. If you plan on refinancing the property, then repayment will not work as you'll only be reducing the debt in the future. Interest only mortgages are only really risky if they are for your own home, and if you do not have a strategy in place in order to accrue money to pay off the balance when the time comes.
