_What’s YOUR Mortgage IQ?_
Last week the California Association of REALTORs (CAR) reported that a recent Zillow Mortgage Marketplace survey indicates that home buyers ar ill-prepared to take out a mortgage, answering basic questions about mortgage information incorrectly nearly half (46 percent) of the time. See the following summary and let us know if you would like to contact a lender to increase that “Mortgage IQ”!
* More than 1,000 home buyers were asked to respond true or false to eight mortgage-related statements, including “The rates of 5/1 adjustable-rates mortgages always increase after years.” Although the correct answer is false, because 5/1 ARMs do adjust after five years, but the rates could go up or down, 57 percent of people surveyed answered this question incorrectly.
* Forty-five percent of home buyers surveyed also incorrectly stated that home buyers should always buy mortgage discount points.
* An additional one-third of respondents do not understand that lender fees are negotiable and vary by lender.
* Survey respondents also believe that pre-qualifying for a loan means they have secured financing.
* Slightly less than half of the polled prospective home buyers also do not understand that Federal Housing Administration (FHA) loans are available to all buyers.
