Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What happens when I make an early repayment? Early repayment reduces the principal, which lowers the total interest paid and shortens the loan term.
Can I make early repayments at any time? Yes, most mortgages allow early repayments, but be sure to check for any prepayment penalties.
Will making early repayments reduce my monthly payments? It can, depending on your mortgage terms. Some mortgages recalculate your payments after an early repayment, while others may keep the payment amount the same but shorten the loan term.
