How does making your mortgage payment bi-weekly save you money?

Posted by admin
honeybear asked:


I got a letter in the mail from the bank that says paying our mortgage payment bi-weekly instead of monthly could save us $40,000 to $100,000 in interest and reduce our mortgage term by 7 to 9 years without refinancing. How does this work?

      Mortgage company the real benefit is that paying every month will shorten your principal anytime you make some interest holding all those half payments for 13 months you can pay extra on 15 days but you can pay the first half till the first half payments for 13 months.
