Savings of 10 percent with variable mortgages

November 24th, 2008

The decree anti certainly will give a breath of fresh air to a number of families. Who has entered into a variable rate loan will have advantages.

Article 2 of Decree Law 185 passed by the government against the crisis concerning the contribution of the State for 2009 to include the rate of real estate loans at variable rates within and making new loans must have the ECB reference rate.

Taking into account funding by 100 thousand Euros concluded in September 2005 (before the rise in rates) in the 3 months Euribor rate plus a spread of 1, 1% (the average parameters used in the technical report Decree) and applying the ceiling of 4%, the rate of January of a twenty-year loan would amount to 613 Euros compared to 676 Euros paid in November.

It seems however that the decree is not clear in every part. The technicians of the Chamber noted that neither the rule nor the accompanying report will consider the claims in relation to objective reasons under which the intervention of support is gone exclusively for people who have signed a floating rate loan. For this reason the mechanism of protection for variable rate mortgages in the decree law introduced anti could result in “unequal treatment of the legislature in relation to fixed-rate borrowers.”
