Legal tip 1215. Mortgages of the future--- a Princeton view
Wednesday, October 8, 2014 @ 3:28 PM

Much looking forward to reading this book: 

Authors ( Princeton guys) are proposing flexible-debt programs. I would called them "person centered debt programs" 

One of them is shared-responsability mortgages. These loans will protect homeowners if the house market crashes. How? By including an agreement by which the principal of the loan and mortgage payments would decrease if home prices in an area devalued

As a compensation, Banks would receive an upfront fee and a 5% of capital gains if the borrower sells with profit.

People/ Reality centered economists, keep coming!
