    If prices are going up, then it’s going to be less than 13.5 years because the value of the house will grow on the meantime and you will own more than you owe

      Nah the 13.5 accounts for a continued increase in home prices. If it didn’t it would be more than that.

        Oh, that’s surprising, then

        But then again, I would not be surprised if the rates fell in the future, so if your mortgage is a few years locked in rates and then goes floating this may be still fine

        I’m talking more likely 7 years in the future, not like one or two, though
