Important information:

At the end of the Flex Payment Mortgage loan term, some or all of the property's equity won't belong to the borrower, and they may need to sell or transfer the property to repay the proceeds of the Flex Payment Mortgage. Guild will add the applicable Flex Payment Mortgage origination fee, mortgage insurance premium, closing costs, or servicing fees to the balance of the loan which will grow, along with the interest, over time. Interest isn't tax deductible until all or part of the loan is repaid. Failing to pay property taxes, insurance, and maintenance might subject the property to a tax lien, foreclosure, or other rights that are defined in the Mortgage. Insurance is required to have a mortgage, and if there is a gap in coverage then Guild may need to force place insurance.
