⚠️ Payment Shock Warning: When the interest-only period ends, your monthly payment will increase significantly (often 30-70%) because you'll start paying down the principal over a shorter remaining term. Make sure you can afford the future payment before choosing this loan type.
💡 Best Used For: Real estate investors flipping properties, business owners managing cash flow, buyers expecting income increases, or homeowners planning to sell before the IO period ends. Not recommended for buyers planning to stay long-term without principal paydown strategies.
