Original text : "In most of Western Europe (except Denmark, the Netherlands and Germany), variable-rate mortgages are more common, unlike the fixed-rate mortgage common in the United States."

Proposed change : "Western European countries present a diversified landscape, with some countries (France, Belgium, Germany, the Netherlands, Denmark) where fixed-rate mortgages are the norm and some countries (Austria, Greece, Italy, Portugal, Spain, Sweden) favouring adjustable-rate mortgages."

Support. Seems like the most natural and common name that users would be looking for. No issues with ambiguity arise, so going with the more concise name seems to better align with the WP:CRITERIA. — Red-tailed hawk _(nest) 22:15, 19 November 2023 (UTC)

No responses, so I'm going ahead with the merge per WP:MERGE

I am proposing merging Buydown into Mortgage. Mortgage already contains a section discussing buydowns with pretty much the same exact information as in included in this article, without the various reliability and sourcing issues this stub article contains. It does not appear to be an especially important topic that requires its own page, especially as that article is nearly 20 years old and has never been expanded past a single paragraph.
