Risk of Foreclosure if Unable to Make Payments The most significant risk of a balloon mortgage is foreclosure if the borrower can't make the balloon payment at the end of the term. Foreclosure can result in the loss of the home, emotional distress, and impact the borrower's credit negatively, generally for seven years.
If there is a "balloon payment" (final balance), enter it into B4 as a positive value, and use the formula =PMT(B2, B3, -B1, B4). Those formulas also assume that payments are at the end of the period (i.e. end of month). That is typical. However, for car leases and such, the payment is at the beginning of the period.
Note, balloon payments are not allowed in loans deemed a “Qualified Mortgage”, with some limited exceptions.
The Bottom Line Chattel mortgages are a little-known but potentially good option if you're looking to finance a manufactured home or heavy equipment. These loans are smaller than conventional loans and tend to have higher rates, but they have shorter terms and quicker payoffs.
A form of security interest, typically a legal mortgage, taken over tangible movable property (known as chattels).
Chattel is any tangible personal property that is movable. Examples of chattel are furniture, livestock, bedding, picture frames, and jewelry.
