Everyone is so worried about saving 200 bucks a month on the mortgage payment, but they have no problem paying 300K in interest.

the flip side is that the 300K price becomes very vulnerable when interest rates eventually rise. even 8% mortgages could now devastate the housing market (and hence the consumer). it is unfortunate that lenders relaxed standards even as rates were going down.
