I heard some advice once: When you get a mortgage, don’t even think about paying it all off.

They didn’t mean “you should default on your loan” - I think the implication was more that you’ll probably sell your house before your 30-year loan term is up, so don’t think of that huge loan as a weight around your neck the whole time… but I’m not completely sure.

Is that good advice? Why or why not?

Thoughts on buying pre-construction homes in markets that are popping and flipping selling them when construction is complete?

My uncle does this (he’s a realtor) and usually gets 2-3x return. Obviously there is huge risk because property prices can change a lot in 1-2 years, but at the same time the upside is hard to ignore.

Anyway I protect myself against the downside risk? (other than loosing my down payment)

I'm under contract for a new build in progress that won't be done until much later this year. I fully expect interest rates will be higher than what I originally estimated.

I can take it financially, but wondering, If I absolutely needed to get out of buying it, what recourse do I have? Or could I go ahead, and refinance later (who knows rates at that time...)?
