  • An inside look at the interest only mortgage.
    An Interest Only Mortgage is one where the repayments are made up entirely of the interest on the loan. When the mortgage term is complete, the capital originally borrowed is still outstanding.

    To cover the balance, borrowers are advised to make regular contributions into an investment policy alongside their mortgage repayments. This can be arranged by the mortgage provider, most commonly in the form of an endowment mortgage, an ISA mortgage or a pension mortgage.
  • Norfolk island - By: Sveta Panch
    Where the Ocean has always ruled

    Located at 28 degress south latitude, only 1.5 hour's flight north from Auckland new Zealand, Norfolk enjoys a sub tropical climate.

In this mild rather than tropical climate, instead of coconut palms lining the island's shores, lines of elegantly upright Norfolk pines guard the coasts. There are several spectacular headlands, such as Rocky Point and Point Hunter, which offer panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean, and golden beaches overlooked by the ubiquitous Norfolk pines.

    The number of Stated Income and No Documentation loans (No Doc) have increased dramatically in the past few years. In some areas of the country, such as Washington D.C. or New York City, 75% of mortgage company loans are Stated Income or No Doc loans. This is because property values are so high, people could not qualify just on their verifiable income. Consider this. A townhouse in Washington D.C. may cost $700,000. How many individuals can afford that on salary alone? Other sources of income must be taken into consideration such as: retirement funds, stocks, bonds, bank statements, liquid assets, and more. The increase in the number of self-employed individuals, or people who combine jobs and self-employment is also on the rise. The result has been a strong infusion of Stated Income and No Doc loans into the mortgage industry.
