Frequently Asked Questions
How do extra principal payments reduce overall loan cost?
Extra payments go straight to reducing the outstanding principal balance, which immediately lowers all future monthly interest calculations.
What is the difference between a fixed-rate loan and an adjustable-rate loan?
A fixed-rate loan locks your interest rate for the entire life of the debt, while adjustable rates fluctuate based on benchmark indexes.
