Understanding Your Mortgage Payments

General Angela Calla 10 Oct

Mortgage Payments:

 

📌Monthly mortgage payments are the most standard, and lenders use this common payment to calculate the amount you would pay on other schedules. But choosing another option can shave time off your mortgage and thousands from your interest costs. 💰💡

 

📌 Semi-monthly means you will divide your monthly mortgage payment in half and pay that amount twice a month. 📅✌️

 

📌 Biweekly means paying 26 payments yearly, once every 2 weeks. For 3 months each year (usually), you’ll need to make 3 payments in a month. ⏰💰

 

📌 Biweekly Accelerated means you’re paying 26 payments each year, with an extra monthly payment added into the calculation and spread out over the year’s payments. For 3 months each year (usually), you’ll need to make 3 payments in a month. On average, this payment method can take your amortization from 25 years to 22.5 years. ⚡️💸

 

📌 Weekly means you’re paying 52 payments each year, which is once a week. 🗓️📆
