Also depends on life expectancy, cash flow requirements, returns on investment. For instance, I took this mortgage for 30 years when I was 70....I doubt that I will live till 100 and if I do it is doubtful that I will be in this house. My wife is in the same position. The math worked in our favor to take the longest mortgage possible....both my accountant and investment guys were on that page too. Everyones personal financial positions should dictate the course.
