Suppose that you are considering an adjustable rate mortgage loan with the following characteristics: Loan amount: $300,000 Term: 20 years Index: one year T-Bill Margin: 2.5% Periodic cap: 2% Lifetime cap: 5% Negative amortization: not allowed Financing costs: $3,500 in origination fees and 1 discount point If the Treasury bill yield is 3.5% at the outset and then moves to 4.5% at the beginning of the second year and to 8.5% at the beginning of the third year and you pay off the loan at the end of the third year, what is your effective borrowing cost? 2. A developer is offering a buy down loan whereby the interest rate will be bought down during the first 2 years of the mortgage. The rate for year 1 will be 6%; year 2, 7%; and years 3 through 30, the market rate of 8%. A buyer is considering purchasing one of the developer's new homes, which is priced at $300,000. The borrower expects to put down $60,000 and pay a 1% origination fee and 1 discount point at closing. a) Determine the borrower's before-tax effective borrowing cost assuming that the borrower will hold the mortgage for 8 years. b) By what amount could the developer increase the selling price of the house? Assume that the developer's required rate of return is 12%. 3. A lender offers the following loans: Shared Appreciation Mort. Original price $300,000 Mortgage amount $234,000 Interest rate 8% Maturity 25 yrs. Fixed Rate Mort. $300,000 $234,000 9.5% 25 yrs. The shared appreciation mortgage calls for the lender to receive 33% of the property's appreciation after a 5year holding period. a) If the borrower expects housing prices to increase at a rate of 3.5% per year, what would the effective cost of the SAM be? b) How would a borrower choose between the SAM and FRM? 4. Ms. Fabian has a choice in borrowing money for a new house valued at $270,000. She can obtain an 80% loan at 6% for 30 years with a 1% origination fee and two discount points, or she can obtain an 85% loan at 6% for 30 years with a 1% origination fee, two discount points and an estimated annual insurance premium of 0.52% of the loan amount. For simplicity assume the monthly mortgage insurance premiums are computed using the original loan amount instead of the loan balance. At closing Ms. Fabian has to prepay 14 months of mortgage insurance premiums. Ms. Fabian intends to sell the house in 5 years. At that time, unless the Private Mortgage Insurance has been previously cancelled, the unearned portion of the prepaid mortgage insurance premiums will be refunded to Ms. Fabian. Which alternative should Ms. Fabian choose if her required rate of return is 8%? Explain your answer. 5. Mr. Friedman owns a house, which he purchased five years ago. He had financed the purchased with $450,000 mortgage with an interest rate of 9%, a 30 year term, and a 1.5% origination fee. Today, a new mortgage can be obtained at 6% for 25 years with a 1% origination fee and 2.5 discount points. If Mr. Friedman pays off the existing loan within 8 years of origination, a 3% prepayment penalty will be charged on the outstanding loan balance. He intends to sell the house five years from now. To finance the initial Page 1 of 13 investment required to refinance the house Mr. Friedman can obtain a personal loan at 8% for 60 months, or he can use his own capital. a) Should he refinance if his opportunity cost of capital is 8%? Explain. b) Which source of funds should Mr. Friedman use if he decides to refinance the house? Explain. 6.

Mr. Watt has a choice in borrowing money for a new house valued at $156,960. He can obtain an 80% conventional loan at 6% for 30 years, or he can obtain a 95% conventional loan at 6% for 30 years. In both cases financing costs will be 3.5% of the loan amount. In addition, to obtain the 95% loan Mr. Watt has to prepay 14 months of mortgage insurance premiums plus an estimated monthly premium of $117.72. He intends to sell the house in 5 years.

All payments are monthly. a) Should the borrower refinance if he plans to own the property for the remaining loan term? Assume that the investor borrows only an amount equal to the outstanding balance of the loan. b) Would your answer to part (a) change if he planned to own the property for o Page 3 of 13 18. A builder is offering $100,000 loans for his properties at 9 percent for 25 years. Monthly payments are based on current market rates of 9.5 percent and are to be fully amortized over 25 years.

Assume the buyer would have the loan for the entire 25 year term. b) How would your answer to part (a) change if the property is resold after 10 years and the loan repaid? 19. A property is available for sale that could normally be financed with a fully-amortizing $80,000 loan at a 10 percent rate with monthly payments over a 25-year term. Payments would be $726.96 per month. The builder is offering buyers a mortgage that reduces the payments by 50 percent for the first year and 25 percent for the second year. After the second year, regular monthly payments of $726.96 would be made for the remainder of the loan term. a) How much would you expect the builder to have to give the bank to buy down the payments as indicated? b) Would you recommend the property to be purchased if it was selling for $5,000 more than similar properties that do not have the buydown available? 20. You are considering an option to purchase or rent a single residential property. You can rent it for $1,200 per month and the owner would be responsible for maintenance, property insurance, and property taxes. Alternatively, you can purchase this property for $200,000 and finance it with an 80 percent LTV, 30 year loan at 6 percent interest. The loan can be prepaid at any time with no penalty. You have done research in the market area and found that (1) properties have historically appreciated at an annual rate of 3 percent, and rents on similar properties have also increased at 3 percent annually; (2) maintenance and insurance are currently $1,500 each per year and they have been increasing at a rate of 3 percent per year; (3) you are in a 26 percent marginal tax rate and plan to occupy the property as your property as your personal residence for at least four years and the capital gains exclusion would also apply when you sell the property; (4) selling costs would be 7 percent in the year of sale; (5) property taxes have generally been about 2 percent of property value each year. Based on this information you must decide: a) If you choose to rent, and invest the $40,000 down payment in an investment comparable to buying a house, you can expect to earn 10% after taxes on your equity. Should you buy the property or rent it for a four-year period of ownership? b) What if your expected period of ownership was to change to five years? Would owning or renting be better if you wanted to earn a 10% IRR after taxes? c) Approximately what level of rents would make you indifferent between owning and renting for a fouryear period? Hint: You can use the \"Ch7 Rent vs Buy\" sheet in the Excel templates file to solve this problem. 21.
