Reminds me how people who have been paying much more in rent each month for years, often decades, are constantly refused mortgages for being “high risk” 🤦
I am compelled to point out here that one does not have to go with a variable rate mortgage. I would say one should never go with a variable rate mortgage for exactly the reason you state.
Additionally, rent is insane. One might not find cheaper rent, without getting help from the state. And if you make more than $60,000 a year, good luck with that.

And then going into the negative on your credit card and paying it in time somehow makes you have good financial decisions.

But there are fixed rate mortgages.
That’s simply not true. The number one cause of homelessness in the US is a nationwide lack of affordable housing, including rentals.
