And all the money you put into it. then everything in house must be up to date to sell. you have to fiz up a place to sell it. here is the part that makes you vomit. Take that 90 and buy a mutual fund and in those 7 years it might be worth 300k.

ANSWER......RENT......unless your a family staying put for 15-20 years
Oh no...!

Here we always had 30%+ down, that's why we don't have the foreclosure BS going on in the states. Way less toxic loans. You actually need a bit more to insiure the loan here rather than just a property alone, but hey, who told you to go buy a 400k property if you can't find insurance for that other 30%. Think banks are stupid and should just lend like there's no tomorrow? We all saw how that worked fine.

And 90k turning into 300k in 7 years while you are incapable of coughing up 90k? Wow... Turbo loan wishes, turbo profit wishes... fucking nice. Let the financial gods have mercy on you.
