9. Another ticking time bomb I had not heard of: some HELOCs have a provision in which if the value of the house falls a certain amount, the loan converts to a fixed 15-year amortization loan AT 18 PERCENT.


I have never heard of this, but I would think that this would be one of the predatory practices that won't continue. It doesn't pass the smell test.
