Additional Payments Yield Huge Mortgage Savings Making regular extra payments toward your loan principal will yield enormous savings. Borrowers pay more on principal by employing various techniques. For many people,Perhaps the easiest way to organize this process is to make 1 additional mortgage payment per year. But some folks can't afford this huge additional expense, so dividing an additional payment into twelve extra monthly payments is a great option too. Another very popular option is to pay a half payment every two weeks. The result is you make one additional monthly payment each year. Each option yields different results, but each will significantly shorten the length of your mortgage and lower your total interest paid. Lump-sum Additional Payment It may not be possible for you to pay more every month or even every year. Remember that almost all mortgages will permit you to pay extra on your principal at any time. Whenever you come into unexpected cash, consider using this rule to make a one-time additional payment on mortgage principal. If, for example, you were to receive a surprise windfall just a few years into your mortgage, you could apply a portion of this money toward your loan principal, resulting in significant savings and a shortened payback period. For most loans, even a small amount, paid early in the mortgage, could offer huge savings in interest and in the length of the loan. 1st Credential Mortgage Inc can walk you At 1st Credential Mortgage Inc, we answer questions about interest-saving strategies every day.
