Suppose you want to purchase a property for $205,000 and you have $30,000 to put down as a down payment. The property has an existing mortgage that can be wrapped. This loan is a fixed-rate mortgage at 7 percent, monthly payments. This loan had an original balance of $150,000 and has 20 years remaining on its original 30-year term. The current market rate for a new fixed-rate loan is 10.50 percent for 20 years. The seller will give you a wrap loan for an amount equal to the purchase price minus the down payment at 8.75 percent, monthly payments. What is the effective equity yield for the wrap lender if the wrap loan is written for a term equal to the remaining term of the existing mortgage and both are held to maturity?
