Negative Amortization Loan
Negative amortization loans are very, very high risk for most consumers and
are not a good choice of mortgage loan for the general population. Negative
amortization loans are ones which the balance of your mortgage loan actually
increases instead of decreases. With the popularity of loans with negative
amortization options, many consumers have opted for these loan types and are
finding themselves in trouble with the current real estate and mortgage market
conditions, which are being deemed as the mortgage meltdown of 2007.
Negative Amortization Loan programs, which were once available to only the wealthiest of a banks customers due to their ability to allow borrowers to defer interest, are now being marketed to more "conventional" self employed borrowers, business owners, and beneficiaries of passive income, investment income, rental income or even substantial bonus or commission income.
When they were originally introduced, negative amortization loan programs were marketed under names such as "deferred interest mortgage" or "payment cap ARM", which very accurately reflect the nature of these "neg-am" mortgages, which are very powerful tools intended for homeowners with a certain degree of financial sophistication. While reverse mortgages are one type of negative amortization loan, the sort which have received the most press and the widest number of names are the so called "pay option" negative amortization loan program, which allows borrowers to choose each month whether or not they will defer or pay down the interest due on their mortgage.
As negative amortization loans have entered the mainstream in recent years, they have shed their "technical" sounding names and have been marketed to consumers under a nearly countless number of different monikers.
