English term or phrase: "funny money" loans
So is it risky to buy something now?
I'm conservative about home buying. It's an illiquid asset, and you may have to wait out the housing cycle [to sell]—and they run for five to nine years. I've had to do that once. I've waited out, and I made good money in the end, but I had to wait. Now is the time to look at your house as shelter, not as an ATM. And you should avoid what I call those "funny money" loans, like the interest-only ones. You don't want the house to own you.
