Because they were mostly jumbo loans, obviously the difference in monthly payment grows with the larger loan amount. The $100 per month difference in the $100,000 example above grows to $1,000 per month on a $1,000,000 loan, which is a substantial amount of cash that could be put to better use. For example, while real estate might produce a "return" of the inflation rate plus a couple of percentage points, putting that money to work in the stock market instead could offer much higher returns. A savvy Wilson investor might just be able to grow his investment very handsomely in a short period -- leveraging their incomes to build asset strength.

This is a viable use of interest-only payments, but naturally there are risks, especially in stocks. However, the type of savvy-investor-type Wilson people we're talking about here normally have assets sufficient to help offset any risks of not paying off their homes should they need to sell or refinance. Their risk is less than yours or mine would be.

Most interest-only payment schemes are offered on Adjustable Rate Mortgages (ARMs), but they can be found on fixed-rate mortgages (FRM) as well. They've also entered the mainstream, so that they're available to just about all Wilson borrowers. The loans you'll find will most likely be sold to a secondary market dealer, so let's look at Fannie Mae's program.

Fannie Mae purchases from lenders an interesting version of a FRM featuring interest-only payments. Called "InterestFirst", it features back-to-back 15-year terms, with the first period comprised of interest-only payments and the second fully- amortizing. Expect to pay a little extra for this product: the rate for the InterestFirst product is slightly above the rate for a similar, but fully-amortizing, product.
