Now what happens if you have a 30-year loan but pay an extra $550.00 to pay the loan
off in 15 years, compared to the standard 15-year loan with no extra payment?
30 Year 15 Year
The purchase of a home can be a sound financial investment allowing you to own
property and build equity. However, given the choice between a 15 and 30-year loan, the option
that makes the most financial sense is the 15-year loan. In every scenario given in this project,
the 15-year loan is a better option for maximizing your savings/cost ratio.
