My old man told me about buying his first house in the early 80s with an interest rate of 13% Apparently the going rate was 17%, he only qualified for the 13% rate because his income was so low, which makes zero sense to me

That income is apparently take-home, so their gross income is likely much higher than the $7200 number cited. Maybe they can free up some money from an uncited 401k, besides that... Maybe. Either way, yeah, they're just looking for permission to do what they already wanted
