More Dutch homeowners trapped by interest-only mortgages
Original: aflossingsvrije hypotheek
In the Netherlands, growing numbers of homeowners with interest-only mortgages (aflossingsvrije hypotheek) face being 'locked up' in their current homes. Industry publication VVP Online reports that these homeowners struggle to move because taking a new mortgage means losing the favourable tax treatment and terms their existing loan offers. The concern is that rising rates and remaining debt make relocating or refinancing financially unattractive for many households.
Why now: Rising interest rates are renewing debate about the risks of interest-only mortgages for Dutch homeowners.
