$625k home

20% down-payment

$500k mortgage

With a 6% interest rate and a 30-year term, you are paying $579,190.95 in interest.

The $625,000 house cost you $1,204,190.95.

This is equal to a $3,345 monthly rental payment, plus you pay for maintenance and repairs.

Houses cost so much because people can borrow money that's created with the press of a button to buy them.

If everyone had to pay in cash for their home, prices would drop significantly.

Most people think mortgages are designed to help them.

But NO.

Mortgages are designed to earn profits for banks.
