The mortgage loan origination industry is BRUTAL. HIGH RATES, HIGH HOME PRICES, SKYROCKETING INFLATION, OUT OF CONTROL COSTS OF GOODS AND SERVICES mean severe competition as a mortgage loan originator. Many mortgage loan originators cannot take it and continue to leave the mortgage business in droves. More mortgage companies are closing their doors like never before.

Car Purchase:
Ownership: When you purchase a car, you own it outright after making all the payments.
Financing: You typically finance the purchase through a loan and pay it off over several years (usually 3-7 years).
Equity: As you pay down the loan, you build equity in the vehicle, which you can cash out by selling or trading it in.
Unlimited Mileage: There are no mileage restrictions when you own the car.
Long-term Costs: After the loan is paid off, you only have to cover maintenance, insurance, and operating costs.
Auto Lease:
Ownership: You don’t own the car; instead, you pay to use it for a predetermined period (usually 2-4 years).
Leasing Payments: You make monthly lease payments, which are generally lower than loan payments for the same car.
No Equity: At the end of the lease, you have no ownership or equity in the vehicle.
Mileage Limits: Most leases come with annual mileage limits (e.g., 10,000-15,000 miles), and you pay extra for exceeding them.
Long-term Costs: After the lease ends, you either return the car or purchase it at a predetermined residual value. You then have to start a new lease or purchase a different vehicle.
Wear and Tear: You may have to pay fees for excessive wear and tear when returning the leased car.
In summary, a car purchase gives you ownership and equity but higher upfront and long-term costs, while an auto lease provides lower monthly payments but no ownership, mileage restrictions, and additional fees or costs at the end of the lease term.
The best choice depends on your driving habits, budget, and personal preferences regarding ownership and long-term costs.

MemberMarch 16, 2024 at 2:36 pm in reply to: Can I Get Home Loan With a Prior 120 Day Late Mortgage PaymentYes, @Lilboss that is true. Inflation is skyrocketing to 30 year highs, mortgage rates are surging and went up from 3.0% two years ago and now is 7.5%, home prices have gone up 50% or more in many parts of the country so many homebuyers are priced out of the housing market, grocery prices are double and triple of what they were, the media is lying, Big Mac meals are $18.00, the coronavirus outbreak is a sham and a mean of depopulation, Biden is lying, and old bag Janet Yellen is lying and kissing Joe Biden’s ass. Never before has the U.S. economy been so worse off than it is now. People are losing their jobs, many cannot afford their housing payments and utilities, $100,000 salary per year used to be high income but you can barely get by with a six figure income. Most Americans live paycheck to paycheck, credit card companies are lowering the credit limits of consumers. Bankruptcy and Foreclosure will skyrocket and maybe worse than the 2008 financial crisis.
