Im not saying i agree with them, and obviously you are responsible with your money. But it comes to dollars and cents. If you default on the loan, they can only sell the house to recoup their investment, any money made beyond that at auction would be returned to the person who defaulted, at least thats how law in michigan is. If you dont default, then they make money on interest over the life of the loan. Banks arent in business for fun. Again, not sayin i like the system, cuz i dont and ive been pimped by the credit bureau thing in the past.I own everything including my farm, I was going to put $100k down on a $200k house. It makes no sense that a financial institution would not take a risk with 50% equity to insure their investment. I wouldn't loan to someone with no history either, but I would loan to you if you put half down. If you default, I sell the house for more than 50% of its value and at minimum, recoup my money.
I figured it was a sign that I should not buy that house. I will keep my money, they can keep the house. I am not complaining, I am just confused by their game. No worries here.
