Beyoncé and Jay-Z Have a Mortgage, Despite Being Billionaires

  • 6 years ago
Last year, Queen Bey and Hova bought a mansion in California for $88 million, but they didn't buy
it in cash. The powerhouse couple was financed
for $52.8 million by Goldman Sachs at
a fixed rate of 3.4% interest, which
becomes variable interest in 2022. 'The Wall Street Journal' estimates that
the monthly payments are over $200,000. With property prices rising and interest rates nearing historic lows, such a "superjumbo loan" would provide quite
the financial benefit to the mega-rich. Taking on a mortgage gives
the wealthy an opportunity
to use their millions for
investments elsewhere, Handing out mortgages to
the rich benefits banks too. Jon Maddux, CEO of FundLoans, to
