Have you ever heard of a no-frills mortgage? 🤔
If not – let’s break it down, shall we”?
A no-frills service or product is where non-essential features have been removed from the product or service to keep the price as low as possible.
Make sense?
While the name “no-frills” can sound enticing at first, it may not actually be the best choice when it comes to securing a mortgage. Here’s why:
1️⃣ You’ll pay a much higher penalty if you need to break your mortgage.
2️⃣ You’ll have limited prepayment privileges.
3️⃣ There may be limitations if you want to port your mortgage to a different property.
4️⃣ You may not be able to refinance your mortgage without incurring a big penalty.
Simply put? Save the no-frills for things like grocery store or budgeting on a car purchase! A no-frills mortgage can end up being quite restrictive and leave you with not a ton of flexibility moving forward.
Flexibility is important, life is full of unexpected curve balls and you’ll want to be sure you’re covered for those moments. ⚾️
