There’s a thing that’s lurking in the housing industry and is coming to a lot of different folks right now. Back in 2004 or so, there were a lot of 80/20 loans, 80/15 loans, basically when you purchased a home or refinanced back then and got a home equity line of credit as part of your mortgage, a lot of these home equity lines were adjustable rate.
